Extension Internship
What is the Extension Internship?
The UGA Cooperative Extension is offering internships to college students to work for one semester in a county Extension office. Students will be matched with an agent in the county or region they prefer, if possible. The internship can be completed during any semester during the year. This is a paid internship.
Minimum Requirements:
- enrolled as an undergraduate or graduate student in a degree program that would qualify the participant for employment as an Extension agent
- interested in pursuing a career in Extension
Interns will have the opportunity to:
- get involved in Extension programming
- experience 4-H, maybe even go to camp!
- earn college credits—it will be up to the student to work with the internship coordinator in their department to arrange for college credits
Apply:
Applications are due 60 days before the first day of class for the semester in which the student wishes to do their internship. To apply, complete and submit the following:
