Each year, Mount Allison students participate in paid internships. They are opportunities for students to apply what they have learned in the classroom, gain practical skills, build professional networks, and explore career opportunities. Students return to campus stronger scholars, researchers and communicators, and they strengthen our entire learning community. 

The University is deeply grateful to donors for making many of these opportunities possible. Donor-funded internships can support student salaries along with travel and other associated costs. Students regularly intern with organizations here in New Brunswick, throughout Canada, and around the world.
