The Center for Research on Vermont manages all internships at ¶¶Òõ̽̽. These are meaningful opportunities for students to get hands-on experience in a field of their interest, under the guidance of experienced professionals and ¶¶Òõ̽̽ instructors.
Local Democracy and Vermont Research
The Local Democracy and Vermont Research Internship Program offers students opportunities to work with Vermont town municipal offices to assist with communications, day-to-day operations, resident engagement, special projects, events, and more. There are also student opportunities with CRVT research projects that dive deep into Vermont demographics, culture, and governance. Together, these internships are a chance for students to contribute to civic functions and democracy here in our state.
Community News Service
interns report for local outlets around the state under the guidance of professional editors and ¶¶Òõ̽̽ instructors. We partner with nearly two dozen hyperlocal print publications along with statewide news organizations and broadcasters to provide hands-on journalism experience to students and critical news coverage to Vermonters.
Energy and Transportation Planning
Students work on sustainable transportation projects that match their interests and academic goals, with a final project that involves publishing a story (or multiple stories) about actual sustainable transportation issues a Vermont community is facing.
Energy Action Seminar: Internships
Vermont Legislature
Vermont's citizen legislators have no professional staff. The Legislative Internship Center pairs students with legislators to do a range of work from responding to constituents, policy research, event coordination, and logistics support. Students gain professional experience and get a first-hand look at policy-making up close.
Public Health
Students are matched with organizations around the state that work to address public health challenges. A partnership between the College of Arts and Sciences, Health and Society, and CNHS' Health Sciences program, the Public Health Community of Practice brings students together across disciplines to support the health of Vermonters.
