The Clinton School’s International Public Service Project, which is supported by a stipend, is an 8-10 week experience designed to provide students with practical experience with an organization that fosters an immersive cross-cultural experience or domestically with an organization that has a global mission to its work within the United States.

The IPSP, the second of three major field service projects, provides students with the opportunity to apply learning acquired during the first year of the MPS curriculum by testing newly developed skills in a setting that stretches the boundaries of one’s existing cultural and experiential world ultimately creating the conditions for academic, professional and personal growth.
