Student Opportunities
Miami's Government Relations Network (GRN) and our Government Relations Living Learning Community (GRLLC) provide students of all majors with the opportunity to explore government-related careers and professions through a wide-ranging network of alumni, University friends, public officials, and other professionals serving in government-related fields. Through these two programs, we sponsor workshops designed to expose students to the necessary skills to enter and thrive in public service, government relations, advocacy, and journalism. We also provide opportunities for students to have direct interaction with elected officials through hosting on-site conferences in both the nation's capitol and the state capitol.
Living Learning Community
In conjunction with Miami University's Offices of Government Relations and Residence Life, this interdisciplinary community exposes students to a variety of career and volunteer opportunities in areas related to government and journalism. Students who live in this community examine how an individual can impact government and how government can impact an individual both inside and outside of the classroom.
Inside Washington
This unusual study-away experience—offered in spring semesters and in a 10-week summer term—gives you weeks of field trips, research, and small-group interaction with an array of Washington insiders. That is followed by full-time D.C. internships that professors help you arrange.
Advocates Program
With respect to advocacy efforts, we have an outstanding track record of success and are prepared to accomplish even greater things in the future to prepare our graduates for the challenges ahead in our global society. When you join this program, we will keep you informed of legislation that affects our core mission. You can also help us by providing information on your relationships with legislators and other public officials, as we often have to call on our supporters to help us be heard.
