College Internship Program

Backback to Briefcase GRMS Internship Program

Local Businesses Create Opportunities That Transform Lives

Our Internship Program connects GRMS graduates to businesses and professionals willing to offer a paid internship, shadowing opportunity, or entry-level professional position to give promising students a quality, field-relevant experience that will further their career goals.

Keep Students Out of the Service Industry & Create a Stronger Brownsville Workforce

When students are off from college for the summer, they often need to work. Our Internship Program connects college students and college graduates with businesses and professionals in their field. Students will gain relevant work experience to kick off their careers, while local businesses have the chance to grow and discover talent right in their backyard. Choose the position(s) that work for you.

Useful Internships Improve Grads' Chances of Full Time Work

Close the opportunity gap for GRMS students by letting them earn a foot in the door.

“Recent graduates who strongly agreed they had an internship or job where they could apply what they were learning in college are not only more likely to have full-time employment, they are also more likely to be engaged at work.” - Gallup 2014
