Uternships

The Cal Poly Humboldt Uternship program is a hands on learning opportunity for graduating seniors.  Each Utern will spend 30-45 hours working on a project for a local business. This is great for our local businesses who need help with a project.   Uterns hustle and find their own projects which requires drive, determination and leadership. The Utern will be mentored by both their business supervisor and the IEE Director providing a rich learning environment.    

  • 30 hours (minimum) of work on a specific project or projects. 
  • Unpaid.
  • Optional:  Students can take 1 unit of class credit (If taking BA 482, 45 hours will be required.) 

Students and possible site supervisors contact Nancy Vizenor for more information.
