Goucher Micro-Internships

Goucher Micro-Internships are short-term professional projects that are done remotely. These projects will be hosted and mentored by Goucher alumnae/i and are just for Goucher students.

 

What are Goucher Micro-Internships?

Micro-Internships offer students an opportunity to gain career-related work experience to demonstrate skills and explore career options, and well as build their networks.

 

Students completing Micro-Internships will receive micro-awards of $500 for a 40-hour project and $312.50 for a 25-hour project as funding permits.

 

The Career Education Office is thankful to our generous donors who make this funding possible.
