Internship & Seminar

(4 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

Rwanda is currently depicted as a successful post-conflict nation. This is due to the country's efforts to sustain its economic growth while addressing political security as well as the psycho-social needs of its population, following the 1994 genocide against Tutsis and the civil war. Many actors are contributing to that success story and through a four-week internship with a community based organization, research organization, business, government institution, or international NGO, students get to learn more about the challenges and opportunities of the reconstruction process. The aim of an internship is to enable students to gain valuable experience working in a post-conflict context and enhance their skills in an international internship environment.
