Career Diversity

Real talk about diversity and careers: The things you want to talk about at work but can't...and probably shouldn't.


The Institute for Responsible Citizenship is accepting applications for the two summer KPMG Summer Scholars Program in New York City. Similar to our Washington Program, the KPMG Summer Scholars Program provides high achieving African American male college sophomores with unparalleled networking opportunities, lifelong mentorship, and leadership development.
The KPMG Scholars Program was established in 2007 in conjunction with KPMG, one of
the foremost accounting firms in the country. This program aims to provide African American
male college sophomores majoring in Accounting with an introduction to tax, audit, and advisory services. Students also receive one on one mentoring from senior level executives and their staff.

Program Highlights:
• Earn $21 per hour working fulltime
• Receive mentorship from senior level KPMG Partners;
• Attend important client engagements and activities;
• Receive a laptop for the duration of the program;
• Gain real world practical experience in tax, audit, and advisory services;

Program Details:
• The 2009 program will run from Saturday, June 6 to Sunday, August 1.
• Housing is paid for by the Institute.
• Students must commit to two summers.
• Applicants must be Accounting or Management Information Systems majors.
• Build strong bonds with other high achieving African American males

For more information on the Institute, please visit our website at www.i4rc.org.
Applicants must be college sophomores to apply to the KPMG Summer Scholars
Program. Even though the Institute requires applicants to have strong grade point
averages, the admissions committee also looks upon other achievements such as honors
and awards earned, athletics, past internships, campus involvement, and volunteer work
favorably.

The application for the KPMG Summer Scholars Program can be found on the web at:

The admissions deadline for the Class of 2009 - 2010 is:
Friday, January 30, 2009.

**All applications must be received, not postmarked, by Friday, January 30.
