PAD 402. Seminar and Internship in New York City Government
Students work for a city agency or political figure for at least 12 to 16 hours a week and meet once a week in a seminar to discuss the politics and policy making of the New York City government. The seminar meets once a month at The City University Graduate Center with students who are in similar programs at other senior colleges of the University to attend symposia offered by New York City officials or political figures and to participate in subsequent discussion. Placement in city agencies is arranged by the instructor in consultation with the individual student. A student currently employed by a city agency may satisfy this internship requirement through such employment. A work-study student may fulfill all or part of the work requirement through this internship.
