The New England Council is pleased to partner with InternX, an initiative of the Fund II Foundation, to expand internship opportunities for college students from underrepresented communities. InternX is an online platform that connects employers with undergraduate and post-graduate student interns, with a particular focus on the STEM fields. The platform provides a host of tools and resources for employers and students alike.

Through this partnership, the Council hopes to engage our members–both employers, colleges, and universities–with the goal of assisting students from diverse backgrounds in securing internships and preparing for future career success. We are grateful to the many NEC members who participated in the recent InternX presentation the Council hosted. If you were not able to participate, please see the resources below for more background.
