Interns and Staff

Interning at the U.Va. Women's Center gives students hands-on experience developing skills that will be useful to them in the wide variety of fields they pursue after graduation. The professional quality of their work greatly enriches the Center’s operations and programs. In addition to fulfilling a year-long internship with a Women's Center program, Women's Center interns are expected to take the 3-hour fall semester course "Women, Peace and Justice" (EDLF 5500), taught by Women's Center faculty member Jen Merritt, as part of their Women's Center experience.
