Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program


The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program, established by Congress in 1978, brings experienced mid-career professionals from designated countries of Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East and Eurasia to the United States for a year of advanced study and related practical experience. Fellows are selected based on their potential for leadership and commitment to public service and are placed in groups at selected U.S. universities.
The Humphrey Program is funded by the United States Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, and administered by the Institute of International Education (IIE). IIE, which has its headquarters in New York and regional offices in the U.S. and overseas, is one of the largest and most experienced of this country’s international exchange organizations.
Each year the Humphrey Program interns aid in the implementation of the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program, through planning and staffing workshops and seminars, preparing and assembling information for Fellows and alumni and distributing to over 100 U.S. Embassies and Commissions overseas, assisting in quantitative and qualitative analysis of surveys and other data, performing website maintenance, developing and revising online publications, utilizing program databases and other information systems and researching specific topics as needed.
As an intern, you will have the opportunity to work closely with Humphrey staff, enhance your computer and administrative skills, and participate in the international education exchange arena in a busy, varied and dynamic office. Interns are also encouraged to attend the various functions offered by IIE’s Washington Office.
