About the Program
Silicon Valley Innovation Internship is a high-impact, experiential learning opportunity for Lehigh students seeking an integrated, real-world internship experience in entrepreneurship, innovation or social impact. Offered through Lehigh@NasdaqCenter, students in the Innovation Internship participate in a remote internship with a startup or innovation focused organization in Silicon Valley. The experience will be facilitated through a 3-credit course (ENGR 196).
In addition to a 10 to 15 hour per week internship, flexible to meet individual student schedules, students will participate in a weekly class session to enhance their entrepreneurial learning experience and connect them to business leaders in Silicon Valley. Students will also receive group coaching and career guidance to enhance their personal and professional development. The course is designed for sophomores, juniors, seniors, and graduate students across disciplines at Lehigh. Department permission required through an application process.
**Applications will be recieved on a rolling basis, until all seats are filled**
