The Michael O. Leavitt Center for Politics & Public Service at Southern Utah University

Leadership

"Internships" The Leavitt Center is dedicated to enriching student’s formal education by helping to provide quality internship experiences, leadership opportunities, and professional training. Through their service at local, state, national, and international levels, students render valuable assistance while obtaining the practical skills and experiences needed for future roles as leaders of a complex modern world.

Internships

The value of the learn-by-doing experience outside of formal education is becoming ever more important. In the realm of politics and public service, it is no different.

The Leavitt Center seeks to offer a list of public service-related internships and the associated campus contacts to help in students' search for this critical component of their education.

While organized according to discipline, these internships may not be limited to students majoring in any of the specific fields. Also, this list is by no means exhaustive. If you have additional information or have interned and would be willing to serve as a resource for students, please contact us.
