Internships on the East Coast

Students spending a semester or summer with Living & Learning East Coast at the Baltimore Urban Studies Center (BUS) get an incredible, unique opportunity to prepare themselves for their future careers while being invested in academically, professionally, and spiritually.

The Baltimore Urban Study Center allows students to access and learn from communities in Washington D.C., New York City, Philadelphia, and Baltimore.

Students have the opportunity to be matched with an internship specific to their area of study. L&LI East Coast has deep connections with community organizations, public health practices, research programs and more.

Every semester and summer, a cohort of BUS students visits the internship sites to get an in-person understanding of each opportunity – a chance to see the work being done firsthand, ask questions, and eventually select an internship placement with support and guidance to have the best possible semester of growth and learning. Internship placements are in business, education, ministry, non-profit organizations, political science, public health, pre-med, pre-nursing, public policy, social work, youth and adult mental health.
