Northeastern’s Semester In program connects your organization with career-ready students eager to contribute to real-world work.
Semester In is a collaborative model that brings together students, faculty, and industry partners to solve real-world problems in real time.
Whether you’re in tech, consulting, finance, healthcare, or the nonprofit sector, your organization can connect directly with ambitious, skilled students eager to make an impact. Our partnership model is designed to be flexible, scalable, and aligned to your goals.
Here’s how we work together:
Eligible students complete a 4–6 month, full-time work experience in the spring following their fall Semester In coursework. These experiences are:
Paid or unpaid, depending on scope
On-site, hybrid, or remote
Project-based or role-based
Students apply classroom knowledge in areas like:
Computer Science and Software Development
Data Science and Analytics
Business Strategy and Market Research
AI and Machine Learning
Product Management
Short on bandwidth, big on ideas? Collaborate with faculty to create a semester-long challenge or sprint project where students:
Conduct industry research
Prototype new ideas
Analyze data and make recommendations
Build or test MVPs
These engagements can be scoped in as little as one conversation, and Northeastern can facilitate the match and oversight.
Partners also support the student experience by:
Offering guest lectures or workshops
Hosting students on site for shadowing or exposure
Providing mentorship and feedback during projects
