As a Career Explorations (CE) intern you’ll experience either a four-week or five-week work assignment at a firm in the Boston or New York City area. You’ll work closely with a carefully-selected career mentor - and the rest of the team at your workplace – to learn about your chosen field.
Whether you’re interested in business, fashion, finance, healthcare, journalism, law, media, not-for-profit, photography, real estate, veterinary medicine or just about any other field, an internship can help you figure out what career you might want to pursue and what to study in high school or college.
Beyond your internship, you’ll enjoy the excitement of a world class city. Your evenings and weekends will be packed with real New York and Boston experiences, including theater, concerts, museums, sporting events, shopping and more. Even with all these activities, you’ll still have plenty of time to explore the city with your CE friends. |
