Do we pay Self-Employment for this Intership

We received a 1099-MISC (with Box 3 'other income' more than $400) for an internship at a federal agency.

The internship is paid through the Universities Space Research Association.

 

Does this count as self-employment? It seems odd to me that an internship at a government facility requires the intern to pay for self-employment taxes, but I don't see any other options in TurboTax.
