Both of my kids did summer internships and they’ve both done REUs. One internship was with a defense contractor, and one was with the US Army Corp of Engineers (that one was for 3 summers plus Christmas breaks).

The REUs are another great source for summer internships. Both of my boys did those - and they learned about them thru school emails (again, students need to go thru their emails). Each STEM student should go to the REU website to identify ones that they’re qualifed to apply to for next summer. REUs pay well and provide lodging.

That said, those who have issues with communications of internship opportunites, need to contact Dr. Karr and their discipline’s dept head so that they can take action to correct any deficiencies.
