Internship placements are in NGOs, governmental or intergovernmental organizations in the humanitarian sector. Examples of possible internship placements are: Amnesty International (field work), Human Rights Commission (office work), American Embassy (office work), United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), Red Cross, United National Association of Mauritius (Mauritius branch of the World Federation of United Nations), Mauritius Council of Social Service (MACOSS - umbrella organizations of several NGOs), and others. |
AGS now offers a humanitarian internship program every summer in Mauritius, off the East coast of the African continent. Thanks to a newly signed partnership with the Rushmore Business School, located South of the capital Port Louis, students enrolled in the M.A. in International Relations and Diplomacy at AGS have the opportunity to participate in a 10-week long internship from mid-June to end-of-August on the Mauritius Island. This internship can be counted for credit towards the AGS degree.Contact Us

AGS brought me closer to the world, and to those multinational perspectives that always tended to evade a simple islander. My own ideals were tested and defended on a daily basis, as I was challenged by almost everyone, from German, Russian and Ghanaian classmates to Ambassadors and professors, who have time and again embraced the practical and academic realms of life. Paris' hard-knock life style, AGS' academic structure and my own drive to succeed have definitely provided me with the foundation to give working life the pursuit it deserves.
