Course credit for internships

Course credit for internships

Students who are interested in obtaining credit for internships should first secure an internship with a provider. Once confirmed, contact Dr. Hudak, for permission to register for GEOG 4920/5900.

You will be required to compile a portfolio during the course of your internship and provide a letter of assessment from the internship provider. Both will be used to determine a "grade" for the course.

Geopolitical Analyst



Stratfor is headquartered in Austin, Texas. In addition, we employ people in geopolitically significant areas around the world.

Positions Available:

 

Analyst Development Program

The Analyst Development Program is a fundamental part of our company. It is a substantive, fast-paced and intensive three-month program, which vets applicants for potential employment within the analysis department at Stratfor.

Applicants are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and interests, including world affairs, global trade, economics, technological innovation, engineering and science. Stratfor encourages applicants of diverse educational and professional backgrounds. In addition to U.S. applicants, we are also accepting non-U.S. recruits, especially those who would be interested in continuing their relationship with Stratfor from their country of residence.

The three-month Analyst Development Program is unpaid. Stipends are available, both for U.S. and international applicants. The recruits will be expected to come to Austin, Texas, for three months and work between 20-40 hours a week, depending on schedule and ability. (International applicants will not be expected to stay in Austin for more than three months due to U.S. business visa restrictions).
