Internships

USCA student on the job at his internship with the Savannah River Site Museum
An internship can round out your history or political science degree perfectly, giving you an opportunity to try out your chosen career, useful work skills, and an advantage when you apply graduate school, law school, or your first job.
Recently, our students have interned at sites including:
- Aiken County Solicitor’s Office
- Gregg Graniteville Archive
- Matson Consulting
- Redcliffe Plantation
- Representative Joe Wilson’s Office
- Savannah River Site Museum
- USCA Advancement Office
