Just to start us off, here is a little bit about me and why I decided to start this blog:
About me:
I am a second year graduate student in the College of Arts and Sciences at George Washington University, working on my M.A. in Museum Studies with a concentration in Exhibition Development and Design. I am also a full time GW employee, working in the GW Career Center in the Career Learning and Experiences Department. I am a native of Virginia, though I’m new to the Washington DC area.
Purpose:
The purpose of this blog is to provide a student perspective on the internship process and internship experience. Internships are a big part of GWU and they are an even bigger part of Washington DC culture. Each year thousands of students descend on Washington for the opportunity to work alongside congressmen, intern with non-profits, and pursue opportunities with private companies. This blog will discuss my own internship experience, and hopefully provide insightful tips into navigating the complex world of being an intern, a student, and a staff member, as well as keeping a perspective on my personal life.
