Proposed dates听

Students travel to the United States mid November听 and to return early February (dates to be confirmed). Dates are subject to variation given the specific nature of each intern鈥檚 placement.
Students may travel within the US after their internship and are in fact encouraged to do so, but are expected to return to New Zealand after the internship.

Internship placement
Students are placed within the United States Congress at the discretion of the Members of Congress. They are likely to be placed with individual congress members, but students' interests or skill sets may lead to placements within specialised committees or other such divisions of Congress.听

Role and responsibility
The role of Congressional Intern is a familiar one in the United States and is a common path for United States College students seeking experience in the US political system. Individual job descriptions will be made available from the Congressional offices hosting interns.
Interns may be expected to meet with embassy, Council, Caucus or other Congressional staff after arriving in Washington DC before the formal commencement of the internship programme, and are expected to act as cultural and professional representatives for both New Zealand and the 91制片厂.
