Manchester University offers aid to employers for internships
Manchester University’s Office of Career and Professional Development offers internship funding opportunities for Indiana employers for the summer of 2018.
These limited partnerships include funding for 400-hour internships that pay at the rate of $10 an hour:
- Shared Funded Internship: The $4,000 total is split between Manchester University and the selected employers ($2,000 each). This is open to all employers in the state of Indiana. To apply, the company must be willing to contribute its match.
- Economic Development Internship: Thanks to generous support from the Lilly Endowment Inc., employers selected for this partnership will receive $4,000 to fully fund an internship. To qualify, the company must demonstrate how the internship will contribute to economic development in Indiana.
The deadline to apply is Wednesday, Nov. 29. The online application is available at http://link.manchester.edu/internships.
