Inside Washington is one of the premier out-of-Ohio study programs from Miami University. The Inside Washington program gives students the opportunity to meet the movers and shakers of Washington D.C. and intern in a world-class environment only the nation’s capital can provide. The program focuses on topics in Political Science, Communications, and Journalism; however, it is open to undergraduate and graduate students from any major or academic division. For the first few weeks of the program, students will spend their time in speaker sessions all around the District. These speakers range from journalists, lobbyists, Congressional staffers to members of Congress themselves. This provides students the opportunity to engage in intimate settings with prominent DC figures where they are able to ask any questions they have, receive advice, and make connections along the way. The second part of the program allows students the opportunity to be placed in a highly-competitive internship in their field of choice.
