Job Opening: Student Internship Program – Summer 2026
CTR is seeking qualified candidates to join our 2026 Student Internship Program. This program offers meaningful professional experience for associate, undergraduate, and graduate students while providing firsthand exposure to a sampling of the types of career opportunities available across the public sector. Interns gain insight into fields such as public finance, accounting, auditing, and business systems.
The program will run approximately from June 1, 2026, through August 7, 2026. The exact duration of an individual’s internship may vary depending upon that student’s specific academic calendar.
Interns will be assigned to a specific team and will focus primarily on work within that discipline. In addition to day-to-day responsibilities, interns participate in a cohort experience that includes public policy roundtables, a speaker series, job-shadowing opportunities, and a final presentation. Participation in these activities is required and represents roughly one-third of the overall program.
This program is designed to provide a meaningful, hands-on introduction to public service, including for students who may not have previously considered the public sector.
