Bachelor [Economics - Political Science] From Capital University

Columbus’ status as a state capital provides a wealth of hands-on learning opportunities and a front seat in a battleground state during presidential elections. You could work for a local campaign. Intern in the office of a state legislator or U.S. Congressman. Or volunteer for a political advocacy group. Work closely with your professors on an undergraduate research project that explores your particular area of interest and present your work at our annual Symposium on Undergraduate Scholarship. High-impact practices, like internships, undergraduate research and capstone projects, are proven to enhance student-learning. That's why you'll experience them throughout your Capital education.

Our Political Science interns earn credit while working in a city, state or local government office, or with the federal government in Washington, D.C. As an intern, you could work with government officials, politicians or lobbyists and are expected to engage in significant experiences. Internship placement also is available with campaign organizations or political candidates.
