The public administration internship program is
designed to give students a "hands-on" expe-
rience in the workplace. After completion, stu-
dents will gain professional knowledge of the
workplace, develop marketable skills, and estab-
lish valuable contacts with professionals in the
field who can provide support during and after
their academic career.
Students have been placed as interns in non-
profit organizations such as the Central Texas
Food Bank and Equal Justice Center, municipal
entities such as the Hays County Law Library and
City of Kyle, TX, and State agencies such as the
Texas Veterans Commission and Texas General
Land Office.
Our faculty internship coordinator is Dr. Howard
Balanoff at hb02@txstate.edu (For Spring 2019:
please contact Dr. Marc Wallace at maw301@
txstate.edu).)PORTUNI IES

I had the opportunity to intern at
The Meadows Center for Water
and Environment. The most
beneficial part of the internship
was the research I did on the future
of surface water policy in Texas. I
gained valuable work experience
in environmental policy by way of
being exposed to the daily routines
and procedures of life in the
nonprofit environmental sector.
This opportunity has also helped
me gain professional skills and
make valuable connections in the
field.
THE MEADOWS CENTER
FOR WATER AND THE ENVIRONMENT
TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITYThe best part of working with the
Administration Department at
the City of Kyle was having the
ability to learn from accomplished
and capable practitioners of
Public Administration. The work
I conducted ranged from survey
design, grant research, municipal
website analysis, requests for
proposals, and more. The City of
Kyle provided such an amazing
opportunity to learn and develop.
I look forward to continuing my
internship with them next semester.I
