Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) CEO Alicia Barton today announced MassCEC will begin accepting applications for the fall session of the 2013 Massachusetts Clean Energy Center Internship Program. The program provides paid internship opportunities for college students and recent graduates at Massachusetts-based clean energy companies.

For the fall session, MassCEC will provide Massachusetts-based clean energy companies with stipends of up to $12 per hour for up to 10 weeks for each full-time intern, with a cap of $2,400 per intern.

Clean energy businesses interested in hosting a student can find out more information and students and recent graduates can apply to the program by visiting the program page.

Companies interested in participating can complete an employer application form.

Students and recent graduates can fill out an intern application form.

Since 2011, the program, a partnership between MassCEC and the New England Clean Energy Council (NECEC),  placed 328 students and recent graduates in internships at more than 110 clean energy companies across the state. As a result of the internship program, 40 students gained full-time and part-time employment at their host companies.

During this summer’s internship round, a record number of 125 companies and 914 students and recent graduates applied to the program.
