To encourage global experiences with mission-driven impact, Harris offers travel grants up to $1,000 to cover travel-related costs for paid or unpaid international (non-U.S) internships in the non-profit and public sector. Due to limited funds, the travel grant requires a formal application with no guarantee of funding. The Career Development Office evaluates applications based on eligibility, and scope of work. We prioritize internships that are mostly in-person or hybrid. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Submit a travel application for Summer 2023 Student Eligibility Requirements Travel grant funding is available to students in Harris master’s programs that meet the following requirements: You are in a Harris master’s program that requires at least 1200 credits or more over 2 or more different academic years (e.g, MPP, MSCAPP, and MACRM) You are currently enrolled as a Full-time University of Chicago student in the 2022-23 academic year You will be returning to Harris, enrolled Part-time or Full-time, to take For-Credit Classes for at least one quarter (Autumn, Winter, or Spring only) in the upcoming 2023-24 academic year towards your program degree requirements You have NOT completed all program degree requirements by October 2023 You will NOT have graduated prior to December 2023 You have a confirmed internship offer at the time of submitting an application Internship Offer Requirements To ensure all requirements are met, we have designed a internship offer PDF generator that the hiring manager can use to draft a complete offer.
