HUNTSVILLE – Are you or someone you know a college student seeking a rewarding experience both personally and professionally? If this sounds like you, keep reading!

The 2023 Summer Intern Program, available to applicants ages 19 or older with a high school diploma or GED, is open to prospective candidates through March 31. To be eligible, interns must be currently enrolled in an accredited college or university or have graduated from an accredited college or university within the past six months.

“The city of Huntsville offers outstanding learning opportunities for motivated college students wanting both career and personal growth,” said Kenny Anderson, director of the Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (ODEI), which is spearheading this year’s program with the city’s Human Resources Department. “These types of opportunities don’t come around often, but they can make a big impact on a student’s future through on-the-job training, networking and development.”

The city has internships available in the following areas:

  • Administration – ODEI, External Relations
  • Legal – City Attorney (Prosecution)
  • Music Office
  • Information Technology Services
  • Natural Resources
  • Parks & Recreation
  • Traffic Engineering

This year’s program runs from June 5 to July 28. Internships are unpaid, and interns work Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., unless otherwise specified by the department.

To apply, visit HuntsvilleAL.gov/HSVinterns to complete the application and provide a cover letter/essay. Interviews for the internships will begin April 10, and accepted interns will be notified later that month.
