Whether you know exactly where you’re headed or are still exploring your career options, the Arthur L. Irving Institute for Energy and Society can help support your professional journey in climate and energy. Internships are a pivotal stepping stone in your career development, offering the opportunity to enhance your resume, gain firsthand insights into diverse industries and roles, and discover new horizons. If you’re passionate about pursuing work to accelerate energy transitions and help address climate change impacts — or even just curious about what that might look like professionally, we can help! The Irving Institute provides a range of support including coaching, engaging events, networking opportunities, and a regularly updated repository of internship opportunities. We are also available for one-on-one consultations to address your specific needs.

Our web page is a great place to start, offering valuable insights into the spectrum of energy and climate careers. It’s your go-to resource to start exploring different opportunities through a regular spotlight of select energy, climate, and society-focused internships, keeping you informed about the latest opportunities. Our archives serve as a reference, showcasing various job titles and companies to inspire your career exploration.

We offer weekly office hours in the Irving Institute Project Hub on Tuesdays from 12-1pm (atrium level, room 155). This is a casual, drop-in opportunity, where you can ask questions, get help with applications, and get to know the Institute staff.
