Due to the generosity of Harry Patten (‘58), four UNH Durham students from any college or major can get hands-on experience working at a start-up company (priority given to UNH alumni start-ups). We recognize that not all students have the “a-ha” idea right away and/or they want to learn about and understand the inner workings of a start-up and help in the building process. The Internship Program provides that experiential learning opportunity over a 10-week period. Students receive a stipend of $4,000.

This is the second summer we have run the Paid Student Internship at Start-ups Program. Last summer was widely successful from both the start-up and student standpoint. We had over 11 companies and 12 students apply this year.
This year’s selected students include three students from the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics (Paul College) and one student from the College of Liberal Arts (COLA).  

Paul College:
Sierra Migneault ’19 - Internship at PickUp Patrol, a NH-based start-up
Alexandra Fogarty ’19 - Internship at Industolutions, a NH-based start-up
Arseniy Shapovalov ’19 - Internship at Cuseum, a Boston-based start-up

COLA:
Emily Masse ’19 - Internship at Nobl, a NH-based startup.
We’re excited to share that Emily is staying on at Nobl and Alexandra is staying on at Industolutions!

For 2019, we’re expanding the internship opportunity to six spots!
