Student
Activities
There are several activities of which Policy Studies
Students can take advantage. All students are encouraged to investigate
research opportunities with Rice faculty. The School of Social Sciences
sponsors the Faculty-Undergraduate Research Grant Program to fund
collaborative research efforts, including student stipends. Students
may also elect to participate in the Washington
Semester Program at American
University, which includes both course work and an internship
within the federal government in Washington D.C. Contact the Policy
Studies Director or the Study
Abroad Office for more information on these programs. In addition,
many students gain Policy Studies credit from study abroad programs
or other international experience. Contact the Study
Abroad Office or its Director, Shannon Cates,
for more information on these oportunities. Students who want
credit for other interships should consult the Political
Science Internship Credit web page. The Policy Studies Majors
Society (POSTS) is a student organization that sponsors activities
for majors, including study breaks, fellows/policy discussion groups,
speakers, an email "listserv," and other activities. Students considering
the Policy Studies major are encouraged to join.
