Internships in ISA are ideal for those who wish to pursue academics while gaining valuable work experience. During the school year, students are limited to 25 hours per week and class schedules are considered. As diverse as the agencies themselves, interns in ISA range from those interested in law and politics to international and humanitarian issues.
