Internships last one semester (15 weeks) and students will work, on average, 8 to 10 hours per week.  Students receive a stipend of $1,000 toward their compensation.  In addition to the internship, students engage in projects and activities that further expose them to the social entrepreneurial mindset.

BONUS:  The Shattuck Interns can apply to become Family Entrepreneurial Scholars/Fellows which provides selected interns who successfully completed their placements, and have demonstrated particularly strong proclivity to become social entrepreneurs with awards up to $5,000.  The awards can be used as academic scholarships, or as “seed funding” to launch new ventures or community-based social entrepreneurship projects.

Why Participate?
- Earn a competitive stipend of $1,000 plus an opportunity to potentially earn credit and obtain up to $5,000 for a scholarship or seed funding for a new venture or community-based social entrepreneurship projects
- Gain valuable experience in your career field by interning 120 hours over the course of the semester (8-10 hours per week)
- Be exposed to the knowledge, skills, and mindset required to successfully launch and manage a nonprofit/social venture
- Develop a network of contacts in the nonprofit community for future references and opportunities
- Apply classroom knowledge in a realistic work environment and apply lessons learned in the workplace to academic coursework

The Shattuck Family Internship Program for Entrepreneurship Innovation and Social Change prepares UMBC students for the rigors and rewards of entrepreneurship and social innovation.  This program places highly-motivated students from diverse backgrounds in mentored internships to better prepare them to launch for-profit ventures

Internships last one semester (15 weeks) and students will work, on average, 8 to 10 hours per week.  Students receive a stipend of $1,000 toward their compensation.  In addition to the internship, students engage in projects and activities that further expose them to the entrepreneurial mindset.

Why Participate?
- Earn a competitive stipend of $1,000 plus an opportunity to potentially earn credit and obtain up to $5,000 for a scholarship or seed funding for a new venture
- Gain valuable experience in your career field by interning 120 hours over the course of the semester (8-10 hours per week)
- Be exposed to the knowledge, skills, and mindset required to successfully launch and manage a growing business
- Develop a network of contacts in the entrepreneurial community for future references and opportunities
