 The Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire is seeking businesses within an hour’s drive of the Durham campus to host interns during the fall semester. The internships are part of an entrepreneurship internship course for seniors gaining experience in finance, business analytics, marketing, sales, business development, real estate and other industries. The program aims to provide students with interactions with supervisors and co-workers in person whenever possible, however will require internships to pivot to 100% remote work once UNH classes begin remote learning, starting Nov. 23. Students are required to work eight to 10 hours per week for 13 weeks, starting the week of Aug. 31 and ending Dec. 7. The internships will be unpaid, but participating companies must pay a fee ranging from $500 to $750 per student intern, a portion of which goes to the student intern and to administrative costs associated with the program. The fee is collected toward the end of the semester. The company supervisor will be required to complete a midterm and final evaluation of the intern’s performance. In addition to on-the-job experience, company supervisors will be encouraged to mentor the students, answering questions and helping them gain insight from other business professionals about their experiences in the business world. The deadline to apply is Aug. 14. Contact Laura Hill at 603-862-3341 or laura.hill@unh.edu. See also
