Washington Center

Maryville’s affiliation with The Washington Center provides students access to internships and seminars in such areas as government, business and the news media. Since 1975, the Washington Center, located in Washington, D.C., has provided college students with real-world experiences through one-on-one opportunities with leaders who make decisions affecting politics, business, the arts, science, social sciences, education and law in the public and private sectors of the country.

This educational opportunity offers up to 12 educational credits for the internships, with the student having the option of taking up to four additional credits for an independent study project. Admission requirements, including second semester sophomore standing, must be met. Additional information is available from the College of Arts and Sciences.
