    Application Deadlines Fast Approaching for 2007 AGBU New York and
    Paris Summer Intern Programs

    The AGBU New York and Paris Summer Intern Programs (NYSIP and PSIP)
    are currently accepting applications for the 2007 summer sessions,
    having concluded another successful year in 2006 with 34 interns from
    seven countries.

    Now in their 20th and 4th seasons respectively, NYSIP and PSIP
    provide interns with unique and valuable opportunities to work with
    some of the most prestigious institutions in the world. Past
    internship placements in New York have included the United Nations,
    Columbia University Medical Center, Merrill Lynch and Sports
    Illustrated. Internships in Paris have included the Louvre Museum,
    Saint Ann Hospital, and Universal Music Mobile.

    The New York and Paris Summer Intern Programs consist not only of
    professional experience in the workplace, but also cultural and life
    lessons for the up-and-coming Armenian youth. Participants take part
    in seminars on résumé-writing, interviewing, and job networking tips,
    as well as tourist activities in order to take advantage of all that
    each city has to offer. The internship programs simultaneously
    include community service and other activities that emphasize the
    importance of giving back to the Armenian community.

    NYSIP was launched in 1987, and was conceptualized by Vartkess and
    Rita Balian out of the AGBU Central Office in New York. The Paris
    Summer Intern Program was initiated in 2003 by the AGBU France
    District Committee. The programs strive to give interns a solid
    foundation for returning to their local communities with both
    enhanced strength in their Armenian identity and increased direction
    for their future careers. NYSIP and PSIP hope participants will
    benefit from a closer connection to their cultural identity and
    become successful professionals and future leaders in their
    communities

    Application deadlines are fast approaching; submissions are due
    December 14, 2006 for NYSIP and January 12, 2007 for PSIP. Students
    interested in receiving information or downloading applications can
    contact NYSIP at [email protected] and PSIP at [email protected].
