Hiatt Career Center World-of-Work (WOW)
Internship Program 

Get hands-on career experience and explore your passions - in the summer internship of your choice - and receive $3,500 to support your work from Hiatt!

The WOW application process is now closed.

Summer 2008 will mark the launch of the Hiatt Career Center's WOW Internship Program. The program will offer fifty $3,500 scholarships for sophomores and juniors (graduating in Dec. 2008, May 2009, Dec. 2009, or May 2010) who want to intern during the summer with organizations that do not have the financial resources to provide a salary.  The goal of the program is to encourage students to use the summer to explore careers that they are truly passionate about by eliminating financial barriers precluding them from following their career interests.

Applicants can propose internships in the public or private sector, in any field from accounting to health care, nonprofit management to social justice, geography to oceanography, photography to zoology, in the United States or abroad.  Students must identify and secure an internship invitation from an organization that will allow them to realize a set of practical, learning, and exploration goals through on-the-job work, side-by-side with mentoring professionals.

A NOTE ABOUT INTERNSHIP SITE: One of the main goals of the WOW Program is to help students to explore career development skills in the broad marketplace and to learn about communities working in your area of interest outside of the Brandeis community.  The WOW Program support will be designated principally for students who are not seeking internships on the Brandeis campus.

Are you interested in assessing environmental degradation?  Does your career exploration point to gaining experience in a rural clinic?  Are you ready to tackle the fine points of international banking?  The WOW Internship Program can help make it all happen!  Here's how:
