The Council offers a unique and collaborative environment for college students who seek to develop their professional work experience in advocating for the interests of the diverse and growing Chicagoland Muslim community. Through meaningful, experience-based learning, CIOGC interns enhance as well as acquire new skills that contribute to their academic and professional growth.

Through meaningful, experience-based learning, CIOGC interns will not only enhance current skills, but they will also acquire new skills that contribute to their academic and professional growth. Our interns advance their knowledge and skills by working closely with local and state government, getting published (online and in print), fostering the healthy growth of the Chicagoland Muslim community, and making invaluable connections with our partners of other faith-based communities through great networking events.

Our internship program runs throughout the year and is divided into four sessions to coincide with college and university schedules: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. We are currently seeking interns and volunteers for our Winter and Spring, however, CIOGC accepts applications for interns and volunteers year-round.
