Program for Community-Engaged Scholarship (ProCES) is now accepting applications for the 2025 Derian Summer Internship program. Derian interns support Princeton faculty pursuing scholarly projects, including research and teaching, in collaboration with community partners. The program facilitates the growth of Princeton undergraduate students as community-engaged scholars. In addition to working directly with Princeton faculty and community-based mentors and experts, interns will participate in regular ProCES programming designed to scaffold the experience through community-engaged scholarship methods workshops and reflective practice. The Derian Student Internship fund is named in honor of Patricia "Patt" Derian, a human rights activist and a U.S. State Department official in President Carter's administration.

This year ProCES is supporting three undergraduate internship opportunities focused on Native American health access, population health, and translational medicine; theater arts workforce development; and Indigenous language activism. We would be most grateful if you would share these opportunities with your students. Brief project descriptions are included below. For complete project descriptions, application details, timeline, and program requirements, visit https://proces.princeton.edu/students/derian-summer-2025-internship-community-engaged-scholarship and contact Tania Boster at [email protected].
