The SWIB Springternship program is a part-time, unpaid, 10-week internship from March to June at a local company office of industries including (but not limited to) finance, consulting, marketing, venture capital and startups. Our past partners include UBS, Franklin Templeton Investment, Navigant Consulting, Cooliris, etc. Our interns are motivated Stanford students from all majors and backgrounds. Springternships give both the student and the company a chance for direct interaction which can lead to summer internships and potential recruitment opportunities.

The internship is set to begin at the start of spring quarter, March 29, and continue until the week ending June 3. We are requiring the interns to commit 6-10 hours per week, and they will be sharing their internship experiences with the other members of SWIB. The interns are also required to attend at least four SWIB business education events during spring quarter to receive one academic unit for the internship. We will send out the application to current students in mid February. Our Executive Board will be pre-selecting the strongest candidates out of those dedicated members who have attended all of our mini-MBA courses, industry workshops, and other events. Once we have determined those candidates, we will be forwarding their resumes to our partners so that our partners can then select the intern(s) who best fit their company's needs.

The Springternship is a great opportunity for companies to connect with aspiring Stanford undergraduates and increase their presence on campus, and for the students to gain valuable on-hand experience. We are accepting company applications right now, if you are interested in participating as our partner company this year, please do not hesitate to contact Tianxin Dai, our Springternship Director, at tianxin@stanfordwomeninbusiness.com. If you are a current student interested in applying, we strongly encourage you to come to our events to learn more about SWIB and to better prepare yourself for the program. Thank you very much for your interest!
