Qualifications:

The Undergraduate Administrative Internship Program is a competitive 10-week summer program offered to rising juniors and seniors in college.

The internship program will provide students the opportunity to work within a specific institute or department at Cleveland Clinic, either at Main Campus in Cleveland, Ohio or at one of our regional locations throughout Northeast Ohio.

Additionally, students will have the opportunity to hone their competencies in a variety of areas (e.g., clinical operations, healthcare finance, Microsoft Excel, international operations, strategy) by participating in regular didactic sessions and case studies. Interns are also granted executive mentors as well as a more mid-careerist alumni mentor. Interns will receive resources to assist them in identifying housing options, and this opportunity is paid at a competitive market rate.
