The U-M Global Social Impact Internships Program with Omprakash helps students earn academic credit while pursuing independent internships with curated grassroots social impact organizations around the world. Internship fields include health, engineering, education, human rights, sustainability, and gender-based advocacy.
Alongside your summer internship, you will engage in critical dialogue and reflection about the complexities of striving for justice while crossing differences of culture and power, and you will create a series of digital storytelling posts that document your experiences through lenses informed by our course themes.
