Overview

The GradFUTURES Graduate Student Internship/Fellowship Fair brings together the Graduate School’s experiential program partners with talented Princeton graduate students interested in exploring internship and experiential fellowship opportunities aligned with their interests. 

At the fair, experiential program partners can promote their fellowship or micro-internship opportunities and engage in meaningful conversations with graduate students eager to learn more about your organization and the range of potential projects to which they can apply their research training and gain additional interdisciplinary skills.   

Current or former Princeton graduate student interns/fellows will also be available to showcase projects, share their experiences, and answer questions. 

All GradFUTURES experiential opportunities have been custom-designed to meet the needs of both the host partners and graduate students. The full suite of GradFUTURES experiential learning opportunities includes: Social Impact Fellowships, University Administrative Fellowships, Higher Education Leadership Fellowships, Community College Teaching Fellowships, and Micro-Internships in Industry.
