New Internship Program in Mauritius |
Friday, 03 February 2012 |
AGS now offers a humanitarian internship program every summer in Mauritius, off the East coast of the African continent. Thanks to a newly signed partnership with the Rushmore Business School, located South of the capital Port Louis, students enrolled in the M.A. in International Relations and Diplomacy at AGS have the opportunity to participate in a 10-week long internship from mid-June to end-of-August on the Mauritius Island. This internship can be counted for credit towards the AGS degree. Internship placements are in NGOs, governmental or intergovernmental organizations in the humanitarian sector. Examples of possible internship placements are: Amnesty International (field work), Human Rights Commission (office work), American Embassy (office work), United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), Red Cross, United National Association of Mauritius (Mauritius branch of the World Federation of United Nations), Mauritius Council of Social Service (MACOSS - umbrella organizations of several NGOs), and others. |

Robert SimmonsUnited States Moving to Paris has taken a top rank amongst the most challenging things I have experienced in life so far. AGS – the classes, my colleagues, and the school staff – provided for me a sanity that I had lost! This program is phenomenal and is giving me opportunities to do some really cool things, such as being invited to intern for a summer at a school/community outreach program in Tanzania.
