Internship Program

One of the many benefits of being a part of the Chicago Scholars Program is the opportunity to have access to our Summer Internship programs. 

Our scholars depend on paid summer internships to enable them to return to college. They value the opportunity to contribute financially to their own education, while developing professional work habits.  Many of our students use the summer job experience to explore career options, and to observe professionals in the workplace.  Summer jobs are the bridges that help keep kids in college and on their way to earning their degrees. 

The Summer Internship Program:

• Provides Chicago businesses with a pool of high quality, ethnically diverse young professionals
  
• Allows college students to have hands-on professional work
• Allows students to explore possible career tracks
• Provides college students with the opportunity to earn income, develop contacts, and increase knowledge
