Kravis Prize Internship Fair

December 4, 2014 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm

You’re invited to the Kravis Prize Internship Fair, offering both domestic and international partnered internships for Summer 2015 — Come learn more about the Kravis Prize Partnered Internships and hear from students who have worked with these organizations in the past: December 4, from 3:00-4:30pm in the Athenaeum (Freeburg Lounge). 

ABOUT THE KRAVIS PRIZE:

The Kravis Prize in Leadership is an annual award that identifies extraordinary leaders in the nonprofit sector, celebrates their accomplishments, and shares their best practices with others. Since 2006, Claremont McKenna College has awarded the Kravis Prize to top non-profits in the world. We are gearing up to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Kravis Prize in April 2015 and with this big milestone, we are also in the process of creating a Kravis Prize community for students on campus that are interested in themes that relate to leadership, entrepreneurship, nonprofits, national and international development, and management consulting.

ABOUT THE KRAVIS PRIZE INTERNSHIPS:

Every year we partner with KLI to offer CMC students both domestic and international partnered internships at the headquarters of our past Kravis Prize recipients. This is an excellent way for our students to learn from the experts in the non-profit world and for our recipients to experience CMC problem-solving and applied entrepreneurship skills at its best. For more information about our Kravis Prize Internships, please attend our Internship Fair on December 4, from 3:00-4:30pm in the Athenaeum (Freeburg Lounge) and hear from past Kravis Prize Interns about their experiences living and working alongside these nonprofits.
