2010 ASSEMBLY INTERNSHIP APPLICATIONS ARE NOW BEING ACCEPTED
Don't Miss Out on the Opportunity of a Lifetime!
Washington, DC - The Armenian Assembly of America (Assembly)
announced today that application deadline for the 2010 Terjenian-Thomas
Assembly Internship Program in Washington, DC is December 10, 2009.
Additionally, applications for the Assembly's internship program in
Armenia will also be accepted through February 15, 2010.
The Terjenian-Thomas Assembly Internship Program, an eight-week summer
program, now entering its 33rd year, is designed to provide college
students of Armenian descent the opportunity to intern in the nation's
capital, while taking part in a full schedule of educational, social and
cultural activities. Students accepted to the Washington program will be
placed in congressional offices, think tanks, media outlets and
government agencies based on their educational background and
interests.
Interns will have the opportunity to discuss Armenian-American issues
during meetings with Members of Congress and other government officials
and noted academics through the "Capitol Ideas and Lecture Series"
programs. Over 900 students have taken part in the popular program since
its inception in 1977.
Partial and full housing scholarships for the Terjenian-Thomas Assembly
Internship Program in Washington, DC are available to qualified students
on a competitive basis. Applications are available on the Assembly's
Web site at www.aaainc.org.
The Assembly also offers a similar internship program in Yerevan,
Armenia. Now entering its 10th year, the Yerevan program provides
students the opportunity to live and work in one of the most
historically and culturally rich countries in the world. Students will
work in Armenian government agencies, non-governmental organizations
(NGOs), medical centers, media outlets and more, as well as meet with
Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh officials and tour historical sites in and
around the country.
For more information on the internship programs or assistance with the
application process, please contact Internship Coordinator Joseph Piatt
in Washington, DC at (202) 393-3434, ext. 336, or via email at
[email protected].
The Terjenian-Thomas Assembly Internship Program is made possible by
Memorial Funds established through the generosity of Aram Terjenian,
Annie Thomas and Florence Terjenian of Belmont, Massachusetts.
Established in 1972, the Armenian Assembly of America is the largest
Washington-based nationwide organization promoting public understanding
and awareness of Armenian issues. The Assembly is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt
membership organization.
