It has been a fabulous 50th year of our intern program!
Please check out the news below on ways you can be engaged with PSIP!
Attend the Welcome Reception
Attend this annual event held in early June in DC! Welcome the new student intern cohort, meet scholarship recipients, and connect with other U-M alumni and friends.
Become an Alumni Mentor
Serve as a summer mentor to PSIP students while they are interning in DC. Share professional advice, offer a tour of your workplace, and share your tips about living in the city over coffee or a meal.
Email Lynn Halton ([email protected]) to be added to the mentor interest list for Summer 2020
Contribute to the Endowed PSIP Scholarship
As part of its 50th year celebration, alumni and staff created the PSIP Endowed Scholarship to enable future students a transformative PSIP experience in DC.
Our new 1st Gen Group offers students who are first-generation college students extra support and resources.
Donate by contacting Lynn Halton ([email protected]) or Kyle Nowels ([email protected]) or online at www.giving.umich.edu/give/700531
Serve as a Speaker
PSIP students love hearing from alumni! Offer to speak on a panel in DC or Ann Arbor (if you are planning a trip back to campus).
Share Internship Openings
Inform PSIP staff about summer internship opportunities in your DC offices, so you can showcase the caliber of U-M students to your organization.
Send to Lynn Halton ([email protected])
Participate in Informational Interviews
Sign up for the University Career Alumni Network (UCAN) to share insights about your field, career path, education and advice for new professionals. Students initiate the interaction for a phone or skype call. Time commitment is minimal.
