External Internships

The Institute for Sustainable Cities at Hunter College lists internship opportunities with ISC partners and other environmental organizations, to assist CUNY students in all fields of study and levels of experience on both the undergraduate and graduate level with finding an internship. Students internships have included hands-on work with government agencies, nonprofits, and private businesses and offer a variety of entry points into the sustainability movement. Through their internship experiences, students further their education and gain the skills necessary to become the sustainability practitioners of the future. When internships opportunities become available, we will post them below. Check back often, as new internships are added throughout the year.
