Government

Our Government students learn how international relations and public policy operate. They learn how governments and non-state actors interact in the private and the not-for-profit sectors within a fluid web of power and resource relations at the local, national, international and supranational levels, and leave with skills that position them well to influence policy and diplomacy.

Washington Internship Program

Since 2000, Flinders has sent over 120 students on a unique program which provides a placement in the US Congress.

Students work full-time in the office of a member of the United States Senate or the US House of Representatives, providing an opportunity, unparalleled in Australasia, to experience political life in Washington DC.
