To this end, the MHC International Internship Program (MHC-IIP) places highly qualified students as summer interns in select partner organizations around the world.

"My internship exceeded all of my expectations.  It advanced my understanding of gender studies and has exposed me to the world of the publishing industry – editing, revising, drafting, working with faculty and independent scholars.  I've learned how to work in a professional setting and to value learning that takes place outside the classroom."

For accounts of other former interns visit the McCulloch Center blog. To receive updates on the MHC-IIP, please follow us on Facebook. For questions, contact Kirk Lange, Director of International Experiential Learning.
