Traditional Internships are internship opportunities arranged
by the Institute with a host company to provide Ross MBA
students with an opportunity to receive hands-on entrepreneurial
experience.
The recommended minimum compensation is $1,200 per week
for a minimum of 12 weeks. Students must be a first-year
MBA or equivalent for evening and dual degree students,
and must be currently enrolled at the Ross School of Business.
International students are responsible for ensuring that
their visas meet eligibility requirements for work.
Student Application Process:
-

the entrepreneurial companies that contacted the Institute
to hire summer interns and follow the links to read
the job description.
-
Drop
a resume for the appropriate positions followed by a
phone call or an email to the company contact to express
a personal interest in the internship.
-
Companies
will contact students directly to request an interview.

Internship
Plan: During the second week of the internship, the
intern will write an internship plan that describes
what the job focus will be for the summer and what value
will be gained from the internship. It should clearly
detail the student's individual goals for the summer
and the goals of the host company.
-
Thank
You Letter: Each intern is assigned to a specific Institute
donor who provided funding for the Marcel Gani program.
In the middle of the summer, the intern will write a
thank you letter to the designated supporter.
-
Final
Summary: A week after the internship ends, the intern
will write a three to five page essay explaining the
challenges of the internship, the solutions to those
challenges, and how the intern's work will be used by
the host company in the future.
-
Post
Internship: Interns do not earn academic credit; however,
they may choose to write an academic case, based on
their internship experience, for credit or compensation
through the
Institute's Case Writing program. Approval from
the host company is required.
