Graduate Internship Program Cost
Cost of the Graduate Internship Program
Recognizing that these graduate students have already completed their first professional degree at the bachelor's level, interns are normally paid at a rate equivalent to entry-level engineer wages. Pay rates are established by the individual employer. Interns may work as full-time or part-time temporary employees of the sponsor; or they may actually be employed by WPI or a third party contractors on a cost reimbursable basis.
More specific guidelines on rates of pay can be furnished to sponsors upon request.
Establishment of an employer-intern relationship is usually straightforward; students are responsible for their own housing and subsistence.
In cases where work locations are some distance from campus, it may be mutually agreed between students and sponsors that some relocation costs to and from the work assignment will also be reimbursed. This is negotiated directly between the sponsor and the student.
