About the Program

The MonitorHQ Summer Internship Program is a project-driven work experience designed for Sophomore students at the Boston University College of General Studies to gain real-world skills supporting a high growth start-up focused on multi-disciplinary skill-building and refinement.

Interns will work on structured assignments with responsibilities tied directly to MonitorHQ’s services. Guidance will be provided by Subject Matter Experts and a cohort meeting will be held once weekly with all Interns.

As an outcome of completing this program, students will have gained exposure to a value-oriented start-up, contributed to real business work and assembled a portfolio of deliverables. Based upon work performance, leadership will provide content for LinkedIn as references and a letter of recommendation for future employers and/or programs.
