Massachusetts Life Sciences Center
Internship Challenge Program



Dear Colleague,
We want to inform that our year-round internship program has been renewed for a fourth year!

Once again, we would like to encourage your institution to help us notify students about this wonderful opportunity. The Life Sciences Internship Challenge is a workforce development program focused on enhancing the talent pipeline for life sciences companies in Massachusetts.


The program will provide and fund internships for an estimated 300 college students and recent graduates who are considering career opportunities in the life sciences. Host companies will commit to providing a dedicated mentor and meaningful internship opportunity that relates to the academic focus of eligible students. Studies have shown the value and necessity of providing students with internships, and we hope that this opportunity to explore a career path will enhance the students' academic training.



Pervious years of the Internship Challenge have been an extraordinary success. The Center has placed nearly 550 students in paid internships with over 200 companies across Massachusetts. The Center will continue to accept applications from eligible students via our website (link below). Companies that register with us to host interns are granted access to review applications and are instructed to contact students directly for interviews. The Center is offering to reimburse companies (with 100 or fewer employees) for intern stipends of up to $7,200 for students selected through the program.



Any student enrolled in a Massachusetts college or university is eligible to apply, provided that they meet the following eligibility requirements:

  *   4-year college or university students must have or will complete(d) at least their sophomore year the semester before the internship, or have graduated within the past year.
  *   2-year/Community College students must be enrolled in an Associate's Degree or Certificate program or completed one within the past year.
  *   Graduate students must be enrolled in a Master's Degree program or received their Master's Degree within the past year. PhD candidates are not eligible.

We kindly ask that you help us reach out to students so that they become aware of this valuable opportunity.
