These opportunities have unfortunately expired. HOWEVER, it's helpful to see what companies are hosting interns and what type of positions they are looking to fill! You can even follow up with a company to see if they have additional opportunities, as many host several interns throughout the year. Please let me know if you'd like to discuss reaching out to an organization, I'm happy to help! Email me at andrew.stefl@rice.edu.
