Executive Intern Program at the University of Houston

To apply click here.
Purpose: The purpose of the Student Government Association's (SGA) Executive Intern Program is to develop student government leaders at the University of Houston, by matching interested students with current members of the SGA Executive Branch. The Executive Branch members would then act as "mentors" to the participating students.
Requirements of Participating SGA Members: Interested Executive Branch members must inform the Executive Branch Coordinator (i.e. the President) of their interest in working with an Executive Intern. The SGA member's responsibility will be to educate the Intern as to the purpose of SGA, and to do so in a professional manner conducive to the student government at the University of Houston. Additional requirements would be to show an interest in the development of future student leaders at the University of Houston and to exhibit behavior that reflects this philosophy. We suggest that Executive Cabinet members meet with their Interns on a regular basis to involve them in SGA as much as possible. There is a one hour requirement per week for each participating SGA member to meet with his or her intern.
Requirements of Participating Interns: All participating students must be registered University of Houston students, either full or part time. The program is open to students of all classifications. To qualify as an Executive Intern, the interested student must first submit an application form to the Executive Offices of SGA. All applications for Executive Internships will be forwarded to the Executive Coordinator (i.e. the President). Each branch's coordinator will review the application, interview the applicant, and arrange a meeting between the new Intern and the "mentor" (SGA member). The SGA member and the new Intern will then determine the scope of interaction between the two of them.
Accountability: For accountability purposes, all Interns must submit a monthly report to the Coordinator of his or her branch, who will periodically meet with all of the Interns on an individual basis. If, at any time, a participating member is dissatisfied with their match, the person will contact their Coordinator for appropriate action.
Benefits of the Executive Intern Program:
To the Intern: The program allows interns to learn, first hand, how all aspects of student government work at the University of Houston. It also allows them to develop leadership and interpersonal skills as well as an understanding that will hopefully lead them in a direction most beneficial to student representation at the University of Houston.
To the SGA Member: The program will benefit participating SGA members by providing them with assistance in their duties on a daily basis. At the same time, this program will enable current SGA members to pass on their thoughts, philosophies, and experiences concerning student government at the University of Houston for years to come.
