Deadline: October 25, 2019

Applications for the World Food Prize Foundation’s George Washington Carver Internship 2019 are now open. The Internship is an unparalleled professional opportunity for students interested in global issues of hunger, poverty, and development in Des Moines, Iowa.

George Washington Carver (GWC) Interns learn first-hand both the public and private side of operating an international non-profit organization and increase their understanding of the international fight against hunger, malnutrition, and poverty.

Working one-on-one with a staff mentor, GWC Interns become an integral part of this internationally renowned organization and interact with World Food Prize Laureates, government officials, international experts in science and agriculture, leaders in industry and business, and members of local and national media. GWC Interns come from a variety of academic disciplines and internship roles will be specialized according to an individual’s background, skills, and area of interest.

Program Duration

While a minimum commitment of 12 hours per week in the hours between 9-5pm Monday through Friday is required, the program provides flexibility for each intern’s schedule, and some interns choose to work full time. While start and end dates are also flexible, a minimum commitment of three months is required. Interns are unpaid but may be eligible for course credit.

Eligibility

  • Successful candidates have: a strong academic background, a solid work ethic, a capacity for analytical thinking, impeccable attention to detail and excellent oral and written communication skills;
  • They are enthusiastic and flexible learners, capable of both taking direction and working independently;
  • All selected interns share a commitment to fulfilling The World Food Prize Foundation’s purpose of inspiring and recognizing contributions to human development through increasing the quality, quantity, and availability of food in the world.

Application

A cover letter, resume, and sample of work (if applying for graphic design) are necessary to apply.
