Food & Drug Administration Internship Opportunity!

Posted: 26 Nov 2018 08:29 AM PST

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) invites undergraduates to apply for an internship program in economics. Internships will be for one academic semester; interns will be expected to work two days per week during most of the semester. The program is year round, with internship terms corresponding to fall and spring semesters or during the summer. The intern will work with the Economics Staff in the Office of the Commissioner. The intern will assist members of the Economics Staff in conducting economic analyses of major FDA policies and regulations having to do with food, human drugs, medical devices, biological products, tobacco products, and animal drugs and feed.

The intern will report to an Assistant Director of the Economics Staff.
