The School of Public Affairs at Baruch College prepares students from diverse backgrounds for leadership positions in government, education, the nonprofit sector, and private enterprise. Advancing Baruch College's tradition of excellence, the School offers students an education that equips them to meet the professional challenges of a globally linked, technologically sophisticated work environment. The School accomplishes its mission through an interdisciplinary approach to the social and administrative sciences in its teaching, research, professional development, and service programs. Public Affairs provides many paid and unpaid internships to those students who lack significant work experience, or those who wish to change sectors and experience new areas of interest.
