MBA Internship Opportunity

Thank you for considering hosting an MBA intern from Vancouver Island University! We have four groups of MBA learners commencing internships each year:

  • Management Stream: July and November internship start dates
  • Finance Stream: September and January internship start dates

Here is a basic overview of the internship

  • Internships are usually project based and relate to the intern’s MBA program of study.  It is expected that much of the interns’s project is self-directed with mentoring and adequate resources provided by the hosting organization.
  • Internship project is 16 weeks in length with a 24 hours per week minimum.
  • A mentor is identified in the hosting organization and this mentor completes two evaluations of the intern as well as meets regularly with the intern throughout the internship process.
  • There is no expectation of pay but compensation is allowed.
  • We work with all sizes of organizations.
  • Each intern is supported by his MBA Internship Coordinator and an MBA faculty member.

We invite you to watch the videos on this page to get a sense of the valuable contribution an MBA intern can make in your business.
