The Internship program was a great opportunity to gain valuable work experience in a government department. I took knowledge obtained in the classroom and applied it in the workplace. During my internship I networked with government officials and departments and was able to see how things were done in the Newfoundland Provincial Government. Although the internship was short, only once a week, it still provided an example of what a degree in political science can be used for upon graduation. I would recommend that anyone thinking of pursuing a career with the federal or provincial government, NGO, or non-profit organization should take advantage of this great chance for work experience.
