How we work with your institution
Early conversations focus on fit: degree paths that match our project pipeline, capacity for mentorship, and how we will communicate with advisors and internship coordinators. From there we align on placement windows, evaluation criteria, and any grant-specific data you need to collect
Throughout the cohort, we maintain a steady rhythm—standups, feedback, and escalation paths—so issues surface early and successes are visible to both campus and industry stakeholders

Candidate journey
Participants join structured onboarding, contribute to real projects with industry touchpoints, receive ongoing feedback, and close with a showcase of outcomes—so skills and evidence of impact are visible to employers and advisors.
Along the way, interns practice communication, ownership, and prioritization in settings that mirror professional delivery—not only task completion, but how work is framed for stakeholders and documented for portfolios.
