Internship Positions - Washington, DC
********************************************
(The Kennan Institute has research internships available starting in
December 2000 and March 2001)
The Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies of the Woodrow
Wilson Center in Washington, DC, offers paid Research Assistantships
throughout the year for undergraduate, graduate and prospective
graduate students who are either U.S. citizens or permanent
residents. Several positions are still available beginning December
2000. Each research assistant works with a Fellow or Research
Scholar in residence at the Institute over a period of three to nine
months. Applicants must have a good command of the Russian language,
good organizational skills, and be able to conduct independent
research.
A Research Assistantship at the Kennan Institute complements any
student's academic interest in Russian or Soviet Studies. Research
Assistants have the opportunity to:
- Work closely with a prominent scholar in the field.
- Attend discussions and seminars sponsored by the Institute.
- Build on research skills you've acquired in college.
- Gain the privilege to use the Kennan Institute Library, which
houses approximately 7,500 volumes and more than fifty Russian
journals and newspapers.
- Have the opportunity to use your Russian language skills.
- Have a flexible schedule of 15 hours per week.
If you are interested in continuing in Russian Studies, a research
assistantship at the Kennan Institute will provide practical
experience in the field while helping you establish contacts with
academics and policy makers that may prove useful for achieving
future career objectives.
To apply, send a resume and cover letter describing your research
interests (applicants interested in history are especially welcome
