Our office provides round-trip flights and fully paid housing in D.C. for the duration of the internship.</p>
<p>
The Federal Relations Summer Intern will be fully integrated into the University of Alaska (UA) federal relations team, working directly from our Washington, D.C. office.

The intern will report to the Assistant Director of Federal Relations, who serves as the daily point of contact, providing hands-on mentorship, assigning projects, and ensuring the intern has rich exposure to the workings of Congress.
