Businesses Sought for UNH Entrepreneurship Internship Fall 2024 Program

The Entrepreneurial Studies program at the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire is recruiting companies to take part in their Fall 2024 Internship program. The program places senior undergraduate entrepreneurship students with area businesses. Students are interested in gaining experience in roles such as financial analysts, project management, business development, marketing, and operations, and in all different types of industries. Students will intern for 8-10 hours per week as part of their course requirement, starting in early September through the beginning of December (13 weeks). Internships can be in-person (company must be located within an hour’s drive from the Durham campus), remote, or hybrid. The internships are unpaid, but companies pay a fee of $850 to participate in the program – 100% of which is awarded to the student intern after the successful completion of their internship. If you are interested in being connected to a program coordinator from UNH to learn more about this opportunity, please reach out to Natalie Gemma at nmoles@strafford.org. The deadline to apply is August 9, 2024.
