Entrepreneurial Engineering Internships

Entrepreneurial Internship

Lawrence Tech created this program with the support of the Kern Family Foundation, connecting talented junior- and senior-level engineering students with companies in Southeastern Michigan for paid entrepreneurial internships. Students are able to participate in up to 400 hours of an internship experience and their wages are matched up to $7.50 per hour as a reimbursement to the employer. This serves as an incentive to small and developing companies to create new opportunities for students to complete an internship in an entrepreneurial environment.
