oceanleadershiplogo_wave-onlyThe Consortium for Ocean Leadership offers Washington, DC-based internships for students. Over the years, interns have come from a variety of backgrounds, disciplines and institutions and have made many valuable contributions to the mission and work of Ocean Leadership.

The Ocean Leadership spring 2012 Communications internship is designed to further professional development for current or recently graduated students and provide assistance to the Ocean Leadership full-time Public Affairs staff and the programs they support.  Through the internship, the participant will learn about the entire spectrum of Ocean Leadership activities.  Communications responsibilities will include, but are not limited to, media monitoring, media list building, website updating and press material drafting.  Applicants should have strong written and communications skills and demonstrate an ability to take personal initiative.

Preference is given to students in good standing at an Ocean Leadership member institution.  Interested applicants should provide a writing sample (less than 3 pages), a cover letter, and a C.V. or resume.  Deadline to apply is December 2, 2011.

Ocean Leadership provides a base stipend of $1,500 per month.  Institutions are encouraged, but not required, to match stipends for a minimum of 2 months and cover intern travel costs to and from DC.  The intern’s medical insurance coverage will remain with his or her individual policy or student group health insurance.

Internships typically follow the academic semester schedule, but specific start and end dates are flexible.  The spring 2012 internship will run from January through May, working Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
