What is Intern U?
Intern U is a professional services consulting firm driving offshore business opportunity back onshore through partnering universities with industry leadership. We bring students into the "real world" workplace as part of an Intern U professional services team providing business solutions to our corporate clients. For the student, this rewarding experience translates into a paid internship coupled with a professional mentorship program.
Intern U has a diverse portfolio of corporate clients which provide students on our team options to support a variety of industries, client type, and project sizes. During the entire internship lifecycle, each student works with Intern U professional mentors that regularly provide guidance from building resumes, honing interview skills to interfacing with clients and building a successful rapport. Our goal is to provide students the practical work experience, business education, and exposure to our corporate clients that can result in a professional full-time job opportunity after their graduation.

Students that come back to campus having had an internship are certainly much more focused in the classroom and are much more engaged because now they can draw from an experience base to tie it into what’s happening within the lab or within the classroom.
