The first of its kind among the nation's management
programs, the Internship Fund provides financial support to students
who pursue summer internships in the public or nonprofit sector
between their first and second years of study. Since the inception
of the Fund, approximately 20% of each class has received funding.
The Internship Fund has a commitment to ensure that students who
wish to apply their skills in public and nonprofit organizations
for the summer can do so without regard for financial constraints.
By awarding stipends for low-paying summer internships, the Fund
not only nurtures SOM students' education within the public and
nonprofit sectors, but also strengthens the management of all sectors.
The Fund embodies SOM's mission - to train individuals for management
careers in multiple fields and sectors - and personifies SOM's spirit
of cooperation and social responsibility. Throughout the academic
year, the ten-student executive committee coordinates fundraising
activities, raising $140,000, including an auction, a Valentine's
flower sale, a school-wide friendly assassin game, and a Fun(d)
Run.
