2005 TWG/Ukrainian Embassy Summer Internship

The Washington Group, in cooperation with the Embassy of Ukraine, seeks candidates for its annual summer internship program at the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington DC. Conducted by the TWG Fellowship Fund, the project aims to provide the Embassy with an intern to serve as a research assistant. In turn, that individual would gain valuable insight into the day-to-day operations of a foreign embassy in Washington DC.

The intern will receive a stipend of $1,500.

Applicants should have completed at least two years of undergraduate studies and be proficient in English and Ukrainian.  They should possess excellent oral and written communication skills, along with computer and Internet expertise. The intern should expect to assist the embassy with needs and issues as they arise, including general office work. 

Candidates should submit the following information no later than March 31, 2005:

• a one-page essay explaining their interest in the internship, preferred starting date (in May or June), and how their background and experience meets the goals of the project 

• copies of academic transcripts 

• one letter of recommendation 

• two references 

Applications should be sent to:

The Washington Group Fellowship Committee
Ukrainian Embassy Internship Project
P.O. Box 7951
McLean, VA  22106

For more information, please contact TWG Fellowship Fund Chair Michael Drabyk at FellowshipFund@TheWashingtonGroup.org.

Important Note:  The individual selected as the 2005 TWG Ukrainian Embassy Intern will need to make visa and travel arrangements in advance, and already be in the Washington DC area ready to start the internship in either late May or June 2005.  The TWG Fellowship Fund regrettably cannot extend visa invitations to applicants, nor can it assist with other related visa or travel arrangements.  The TWG Fellowship Fund is also unable to offer financial assistance to the intern beyond the $1,500 stipend.
