International Monetary Fund Internship Program 2019 (Fully-funded to Washington DC)

Applications are open for the International Monetary Fund Internship Program 2019. The Fund Internship Program (FIP) provides an opportunity for Doctoral students to gain an insider experience of the integrated, member country focused, mandate and work of the IMF.

Interns are assigned cutting-edge research in macroeconomics or a related field (the exception being an internship in the IMF’s Legal Department), supervised by an IMF colleague.

Internships are a minimum of 10 weeks duration, and maximum of 12 weeks duration.

Fund interns work under the supervision of experienced colleagues to carry out a research project, and prepare a research paper. Papers may be presented to IMF staff at the end of the internship, and those of the highest standard may be published internally to the IMF.
