Washington, DC Day Trip

Each fall, first-year MSFS students take part in the Washington, DC Day Trip, during which they meet with MSFS alumni working in government agencies, international organizations and the non-profit sector. During panel discussions and over lunch, students learn about careers in Washington and receive advice from successful members of these institutions.
