<p>is it common for poli sci students to get summer internship, say at the govt, NGOs etc?</p>
<p>Absolutely. Cal has very strong programs in both Washington DC and Sacramento, as well as local governments. You won’t have a problem if you want internship opportunities.</p>
<p>This isn’t too say poli sci internships aren’t easy to get, but there are definitely opportunities out there!</p>
