Ecopreneurial Summer Internship Program (Eco-SIP)
Stanford graduate students can test their fit with an ecopreneurial career path by interning at an early-stage, sustainability-focused company for the summer. The Ecopreneurial Summer Internship Program (Eco-SIP) supplements the intern's salary over the summer when companies are unable to afford a competitive wage. Students most often self-source the startups for which they want to intern, but our staff helps curate a selection of eligible opportunities as well.
