The OAS Internship Program
was established over twenty years ago to provide learning opportunities for students of member states of the OAS. The Program is designed for junior, senior, and graduate students at the university level to allow them to work within their field of study. The Program is non-remunerative and in order to be selected, students must have at least a 3.0 GPA, and a good command of two of the four official languages of the Organization (English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese), preference is given to the first two official languages. A minimum participation of 20 hours per week is also required for those interested in a part-time internship.

• The Program has three sessions during the year. The starting/finishing dates are 1) Fall Program: Labor Day to mid-December; 2) Winter/Spring Program: late January to early May; 3) Summer Program: Mid June to mid-August.

• Deadlines for applications are June 15, November 1, and March 15 respectively.

• Students who receive credits should make arrangements with their universities and provide specific information in order to ascertain that the assignments will be in line with the university’s policy for awarding credits.

• Students wishing to apply to the Program should request an application package from Mrs. Mary Baldwin, OAS Student Intern Program Coordinator, Department of Human Resource Services, 1889 F Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20006. Requests may be sent to DHR@OAS.ORG.
