Over 70 internships

The American Enterprise Institute (AEI)

Internship opportunities are available on both the research and business sides of the think tank. All positions require excellent organizational, research, writing, and computer skills, as well as the ability to multi-task. Responsibilities on the research side include research, writing, editing, and some administrative work.  Most of our research positions support more than one scholar, but they are generally grouped by topic. On the business side of the think tank, our conferences, development, communications, and government relations offices all seek interns. Competitive candidates for these internships will generally possess a 3.6 GPA from a top ranking college or university. The following are some examples of the types of internships AEI offers:
