MBA Internship Program details
Start date: May 28 - August 31, 2012
Duration: 8 - 14 consecutive weeks of full-time employment
Compensation: The pay for an MBA intern depends on the project, the location of the internship, and the experience the student brings. The average salary over the past three years has been $3,600 CDN per month.
Your commitment: A company supervisor is assigned for the duration of the project and is responsible for providing the overall supervision of the MBA student. The supervisor should confirm hours of work, start and end dates, and student responsibilities in an offer letter.
Employers also need to sign off on the project deliverables before the work commences and to provide a short report that outlines the achievements and evaluates the student’s performance at the end of the internship.
