About Business Network Internships:
We equip our interns with the experience needed to excel in their future career – and to advance renewable energy in their profession. We provide interns hands-on work in an environment where they can work alongside fellow interns from the nation’s best schools and the Network’s team of experts. Each intern will have the opportunity to work one-on-one with a Network mentor to develop an internship work plan and receive performance feedback.
Business Network interns collaborate with the communications, design, event, policy, operations, and management teams to gain experience in non-profit management as well as subject-matter knowledge of offshore wind renewable energy.
My experience as an intern with the Business Network opened the door to the center of the offshore wind industry and allowed me to be immersed in the world of renewable energy. I was able to learn about all aspects of the industry, from the many benefits it provides local communities and nations around the world to how the supply chain works, all while making valuable connections, cultivating practical business skills, and attaining applicable industry knowledge that I have taken with me forward in my career.
