ENGINEERING INTERNSHIPS
The mission of MKA’s internship program is simple: we want to show you what we do and how we do it. MKA generally brings in 5 to 7 interns each summer, letting them experience true hands-on engineering. Students are part of a project team and exposed to actual day-to-day engineering. They work on world-class projects currently in design; validate their chosen career direction; find unmatched mentorship opportunities; attend MKA’s extensive continuing education and training programs; and attend any of MKA’s 21 technical specialist group meetings.
MKA Structural Interns typically work for 2 or 3 months during the summer between their bachelor’s and master’s degree programs.
Apply between December 1 and February 28 for summer 2019 opportunities.
