The Frederick E. Berry Institute of Politics (Berry IOP) is pleased to announce the recipients of our Spring 2024 Public Service Internship Scholarships. These scholarships are awarded to students pursuing internships in politics and public service. Internships provide students the opportunity to gain hands-on experiences, develop skills, and explore their career interests. However, internships in these fields are often unpaid or underpaid which makes it challenging for students to pursue them. The Berry IOP awards these scholarships to create entry points and break down barriers for all students interested in pursuing careers in politics and public service.
Through a competitive process, students are selected based on their ability to connect the internship to public service and to articulate how this internship will support their professional goals. For the spring of 2024, the Berry IOP awarded the following five students with a Public Service Internship Scholarship of $2,500.
