AFST Majors and Minors: PAID Spring Internships Available with MD Legislators

Maryland state legislators and state legislative candidates continue to
contact POLI and AFST staff about internship opportunities during the legislative session (January-April 2014) or on their campaigns (now until primary election in June or general election in November).

Through a new collaboration, AFST will offer up to three paid internships for AFST majors/minors interested in working for members of the Legislative Black Caucus of Maryland. Juniors and seniors with GPAs of 3.0 and higher may be eligible for academic credit for such internships through the POLI internship program (requires spring enrollment in POLI 448) or through the AFST internship program (requires spring enrollment in AFST 490 for six credits).

The stipends are modest but the experience is invaluable. If interested, please contact Dr. King-Meadows (tkingmea@umbc.edu) or Dr. Hussey (lhussey@umbc.edu) as soon as possible.
