Summer Internships for Engineers

Students

Ruth Fombrun working at Sealed Air CorporationWhether your dream is to start your own company, become a research scientist or a member of congress, develop an innovative financial instrument, or design the next great consumer product, a summer internship can provide you with valuable experience during your undergraduate years. Our goal is to provide you with resources and guides as starting points in your efforts to secure a meaningful summer internship.

Among the pages here, you'll find links that take you to various resources within the Office of Career Services web site, which contains a tremendous amount of information to help you with your search. A subset of that information, aimed specifically at engineering students, is presented here. We encourage you to explore the Internships and Job Search sections (in the Undergraduate section) of the Career Services web site.

Career services programs, workshops, career fairs, and special events are held throughout the year. These are designed to help you build the skills and knowledge you'll need to find the right internship or job. For details, see the Career Services calendar.
