The Arts Internship Program offers unpaid and paid internship opportunities for undergraduate students at UNB. This community-based learning internship adds valuable work experience to an Arts degree. Students develop practical skills that relate to their academic studies. Internships generally consist of completing weekly hands-on work activities and a major project related to the ongoing work of the organization or partner hosting the student.
If you are interested in an unpaid internship with the MMFC or a paid internship with an organization/agency that provides family violence services, you can apply to the internship program.
The MMFC often receives funding to employ a student in a Work-Study position for 10-hours per week in the fall and/or winter semesters.
