What It Is

 
The Foreign National Student Intern Program is designed for students who are non-U.S. citizens seeking internships with U.S. Missions abroad.  The program benefits both posts and students by providing the foreign national students with valuable educational experience in U.S. Missions and by assisting posts in accomplishing their mission goals.  The purpose of the Foreign National Student Intern Program is to offer students the challenge of working in a foreign affairs arena and at the same time profit by their assistance.  There are no benefits attached to this internship and no compensation, nor any future employment rights.  The program is open to all students and provides the opportunity to work for a short period (not more than nine months) in the Embassy to gain experience in various areas of foreign policy and management.
 

Who We Are

 
The U. S. Embassy in Seoul is comprised of various U.S. Government agencies.  The Department of State, the primary presence at the Embassy, is the official international relations arm of the President of the United States.  The Department is responsible for formulating, implementing and supporting U.S.foreign policy, assisting U.S.citizens abroad and managing the human and material resources that provide the platform for U.S.foreign policy.  Members of the Department's Foreign Service and Civil Service are engaged in issues such as conflict resolution, nuclear non-proliferation, human rights and democracy, environmental issues, world trade, public diplomacy, and the promotion of the interests of Americans and their businesses abroad.  Department of State employees are also involved in support and management issues -- improving logistical systems to get the best possible value for tax dollars.  From time to time, a limited number of positions may become available for student interns who will work with Department of State (DOS), Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), and Foreign Commercial Service (FCS) offices in the Embassy.
