Capital Encounter

University of Utah students are provided with the unique opportunity of visiting Washington D.C. with one of the University of Utah’s esteemed political science professors. Students experience DC and the politics that surround it by visiting monuments and memorials; meeting with members of the Utah delegation, U.S Supreme Court Justices, top government officials; and visiting the headquarters of the CIA. In a week, students are schooled in the functions and inter-workings of the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government, as well as given the opportunity to meet with members of the President’s cabinet and discuss current events with top government officials.
