This is the fifth year that the program is available to the university’s Indigenous students.

The internship program is an exciting opportunity for Indigenous students to access unique career-related experiences in their field of study.

“The university has a wide range of meaningful work opportunities that we want students to know about, so they consider building a career at the U of M after graduation,” says Carrie Homeniuk, Director, HR Services.

Placements will include the Centre for Human Rights Research, Student Engagement and Success, Electrical and Computer Engineering and Microbiology, to name a few areas.

There will be eight summer placements. The students will be hired to work 35 hours per week from May 9 to August 26.

Anjelica Bodnaryk, 2019 ISSIP participant, notes the program has opened up new opportunities in her career and encourages all qualifying students to apply for the internship.

“One-hundred percent do it! Don’t hesitate. It’s a great experience and it offers you a chance to work in fields that interest you.”
