    The Capital Semester Internship Program (CSIP) offers assignments with various Commonwealth agencies. Click here to view a list of participating agency contacts. Since most major academic studies qualify for the CSIP, individual assignments differ depending on the extent of the intern's background in a given area and the scope of the project. Students work directly with state agencies to develop an internship that provides a good match between some aspect of the intern's interest and the agency's objectives. Most CSIP assignments occur in Harrisburg.
