Subject: One of the Best Federal Government Internship Programs is Now Recruiting!!!

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) is currently recruiting for the 2010 Summer Transportation Internship Program for Diverse Groups (STIPDG).  This program provides summer opportunities for college students, particularly targeting groups who have been underrepresented in careers in transportation, such as women, persons with disabilities, and students from other diverse groups.
Eligible participants are all college/university students majoring in any academic area of study.  STIPDG participants receive various benefits including hands-on experience and on-the-job training at a DOT Operating Administration or State DOT.  Included is a ten-week stipend of up to $5,000 for Law or Graduate students and $4,000 for Undergraduate students.  Housing and travel arrangements are also provided for all interns that are selected for assignments with locations outside of their commuting area (50 miles).  Participants may also receive college credit upon successful completion of the program with the permission of their college/university.

It would be of great help if you could share this information with the students at your institution or within your network of contacts.
 
Thank You.
