Send a letter of interest with internship goals, your desired time commitment and a proposed work schedule. If your internship would benefit OMSI, and we have the staff to guide you, we will contact you. The intern program is very competitive. The most successful interns are interested in working with and for children, have good interpersonal skills and can articulate their goals. Enthusiasm is important.
Internships run a minimum of eight weeks.
Many internships are full or part-time for a three to six month period. Please note the time commitment for each specific internship offering you apply for. Many of our interns do the internships for credit. We encourage you to seek academic credit and will assist you in receiving it. Contact your advisor or department chair to inquire about your school's policy.
