MD MEP SUMMER
INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
MD MEP’s Internship Program is designed to support Maryland manufacturers with the cost of hiring, onboarding and training summer interns. Manufacturing internships are a critical step in recruiting the next generation of talent to the manufacturing industry and MD MEP is committed to supporting growing the talent of next gen manufacturers.
This year’s MD MEP Manufacturing Internship Program includes a unique opportunity for participating interns to share knowledge, experience and grow their professional network through 2 facilitated virtual events. These interactions will provide both the interns and participating companies the opportunity to learn more about the others participating in the program, share the projects and experiences and present the result of the time they spent with your company. These virtual meetings are designed to provide students with opportunities to connect with one another and build their professional network, which is the foundation for attracting and retaining key talent.
