Internships in Boston

This list tracks 100K+ company job sources and updates hourly with internships in Boston across finance, consulting, software, healthcare, marketing, valuation, research, and machine learning.

Boston's student opportunities reflect a dense mix of hospitals, universities, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, financial institutions, consultancies, software businesses, research organizations, and consumer or industrial employers. Interns may work in laboratory or clinical research, software and machine learning, finance and valuation, consulting, engineering, marketing, or operations. Some hospitals, banks, and large companies run formal summer classes; academic laboratories, startups, and project teams may recruit on a different calendar or for an academic-term placement. Co-ops are especially relevant at some area schools and can require program participation, while other internships accept currently enrolled students more broadly. The quality of the experience depends on supervision, project scope, and training rather than sector alone.

Boston searches often extend into Cambridge and the surrounding metropolitan area, but each location produces a different commute. Verify the office, campus, laboratory, or hospital site; required onsite days; transit access; and whether a role described as Boston is actually in another municipality. Laboratory and clinical positions are usually tied to a physical setting, and even hybrid business roles may set fixed office days. Check the source posting for enrollment and graduation criteria, program term, deadline, compensation, work authorization, clinical or safety requirements, and any housing or relocation information. Summer housing and transit can affect feasibility, so evaluate them before prioritizing a role. Confirm whether a campus, laboratory, or hospital requires credentialing or onboarding before the advertised start date. Compare a formal cohort's curriculum with the day-to-day responsibilities of a team-specific placement.
