Publishing Intern - Medical, Scientific, and Humanities

Publishing Intern – Medical, Scientific, and Humanities

(UnpaidInternship)

REMOTE/VIRTUAL

The intern decides the number of hours per week that fits the intern’s schedule, typically 5, 10, or up to 20 hours per week; as well as the length of the internship experience, typically 1-12 months based on intern availability and goals. Interns may not exceed 20 hours per week, to facilitate equitable, flexible, and sustainable engagement. We also provide documents to help you facilitate obtaining academic credit at your institution, associated with the internship, if desired. [Note: We entered a year for the length/timeframe of the temporary internship, to give you maximum flexibility; the actual temporary dates and timeframe are up to you — you will determine how long you will spend with us; such as a portion of a summer or semester, or an entire year.]
