Internship Funding Opportunities

Students are responsible for finding their own internships, and are encouraged to look for them in agencies or organizations where you may wish to work in the future, or that you'd like to explore as a future career option.

Two amazing internship opportunities exist that allow students to spend a semester away from Kent and get valuable work experience at the same time.  The following programs can be used to meet our Internship Requirements:

Internship Evaluation Form

Give the Internship Evaluation Form (Appendix B of the Internship Guidelines, or download the Evaluation Form linked below) to your internship supervisor toward the end of your internship.

The SPCS professor overseeing your internship needs to receive the completed form from your internship supervisor by the middle of exam week.

(Note: Different academic years have different professors serving as Internship Advisors, so make sure you download the form for the academic year in which you start your internship.) 

Application Process

Eligible students beginning or continuing their studies in Summer or Fall 2025 should submit the following:

  • A document discussing your educational history (including program of study in SPCS) and relevant grades.
  • A personal statement (up to 750 words) that:
    • Demonstrates knowledge of May 4th and discusses its significance for you
    • Provides evidence of your previous commitment to peaceful change and/or how you plan to bring about peaceful change in the future.
    • Indicates how you will use the funds
