Civil & Environmental Engineering Internships

About CEE Internships

Engineering majors participate in Academic Individual Advanced Development (AIAD) internships every summer. These academic enrichment programs involve working within military units, governmental agencies, and private companies in the U.S. and elsewhere. Cadets work alongside world-class professional engineers and researchers, gaining invaluable knowledge and insight into the facilities, methods, and procedures used to design, test, and improve engineering systems. These experiences allow them to apply what is learned in the classroom to real-life research and engineering projects. The typical internship lasts 3-4 weeks.

Examples of CEE Internships

A 3-week experience to explore the fundamentals of potable water reuse processes. The AIAD is centered on the use of hands-on laboratory activities to understand, analyze, operate, and design engineering-scale unit processes for water reuse. Hands-on learning is also aided by theoretical lessons. This approach will equip students with both theoretical knowledge and hands-on capability on state-of-the-art technologies to solve the water resiliency challenge. 

Sponsored by USACE & ERDC and carried out in partnership with the University of Arizona.

Past Internships

Interested Cadets

Engineering majors may apply for internships during the summer before their 1st or 2nd class year. A briefing will take place in January to provide details and a list of approved internships for the upcoming summer. The process to indicate preferences will be publicized in late January. Selected cadets will be notified in the weeks after selections close.
