Opportunities for Students
The Pell Center is dedicated to providing opportunities for students on campus and beyond to deepen their understanding of civic engagement and public service. Our programs are predicated on Sen. Pell's belief that politics is about translating ideas into action to help people.
Nuala Pell Leadership Program
The Nuala Pell Leadership Program provides leadership development opportunities to a select group of diverse Salve undergraduate students interested in civic engagement and public policy.
Internships and Student Employment
Salve students are eligible for a select number of internship and student employment positions at the Pell Center each year. Through these positions, students engage with a broad spectrum of public issues while gaining professional experience in an office environment. Visit Handshake to find openings at the Pell Center, or email pellcenter@salve.edu for more information.
Summer Institute of Politics
The Summer Institute of Politics is a weeklong residential program that offers promising high school students the opportunity to grapple with complex political questions through hands-on learning opportunities alongside local, state and national leaders.
