What are Micro-Internships?

Micro-Internships are short-term, paid, professional assignments that are similar to those given to new hires or interns.  These projects enable students to demonstrate skills, explore career paths, and build their networks as they seek the right full-time role.  

2U has partnered with Parker Dewey to offer these Micro-Internships which are facilitated via the Parker Dewey platform.
