About the NAFEO Internship Program For over a decade, the National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO) has facilitated internship assignments in government and industry for students enrolled in historically and predominantly black colleges and universities. Additionally, for interns who are employed in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, NAFEO provides an orientation session at the beginning of each program session, and brings all interns together at least twice during their assignment periods for seminars on a range of topics which enhance the internship experiences. If you are a student looking for opportunities to gain valuable work experience to supplement your coursework, or an employer seeking to diversify your talent pool, recruit and offer internship experiences to African American and other students, you have come to the right place. The William C. Foster Fellows Visiting Scholars Program Deadline: January 30, 2012 The William C. Foster Fellows Visiting Scholars Program was established by Congress in 1983, and over 60 scholars have served at the Department of State since the Program’s inception. The Program is named in honor of William C. Foster, the first director of the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, who served from 1961 to 1969. By law, specialists in the physical sciences and other disciplines are afforded an opportunity for active participation in the arms control, nonproliferation, and disarmament activities of the Department of State. This also allows the Department the opportunity to gain the perspective and expertise such persons can offer. Appointments are made for a full year in the Arms Control, Verification and Compliance (AVC) Bureau, the International Security and Nonproliferation (ISN) Bureau, or the Political-Military Affairs (PM) Bureau at the Department of State. For the 2012-2013 Foster Fellows Program, the Department is specifically recruiting applicants from the disciplines of history, regional studies, nuclear engineering, nuclear physics, nuclear forensics, mathematics, political science, and foreign policy.
