Internship Program
Application Process
The JCVI Internship Program uses a rolling admissions process, i.e., applications are considered as they are received. Only complete applications will be considered. If a faculty member or senior staff is interested in your application, you will be contacted to begin the interview process. If you are selected, you will receive an official offer from the JCVI HR department. Once a position is filled, all applicants to that position will be notified.
In the space set aside for attaching your resume, please submit the following in one file:
- Your resume
- Your current school transcript (does not have to be official).
- An essay explaining:
- Your specific scientific interests
- How your skills and coursework are relevant to the position
- How this Internship will prepare you to meet your professional goals
