Levitt Leadership Service Internships

The Levitt Public Service Internship Fund was started with the generous support of Arthur Levitt, Jr., with the goal of supporting students interested in careers in public service. 

Eligibility:  In order to receive funding students must procure a public service internship which may include internships in government, with non-profit organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), think tanks, and other comparable organizations.  Preference will be given to sophomores and juniors, and to students working in government, non-profits, and NGOs.
