The department recommends that students visit the Career Services website or office to learn about current internship opportunities. The University of Pennsylvania is also a member of BMES Career Connections. Students graduating from member universities can search the BME-AII national database of summer internships/research and full-time positions, which includes opportunities all over the country.
The BME-AII database is accessible by members only. Students can obtain a username and password from the Bioengineering department office.
Penn also offers numerous resources for students seeking summer internships or full-time employment after graduation. If you haven’t done so already, contact Career Services to meet with a career counselor, who can tell you about all the resources available to you. Some of these resources include:
Homepages and direct weblinks to over 590 paid co-op/internship and summer undergraduate research postings listed alphabetically by organization name and listed by state.
A website to help underrepresented STEM students connect with funding and research opportunities.
Explore existing U.S. National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF REU) Sites. You can search by research area, location and keyword.
The directory provides the website and contact information for each REU Site. Once you have found an REU Site that interests you, you must consult each REU Site directly for information and application instructions.
