Employment/Internships

Each year, the Women’s Center employs a graduate assistant and paid programming and outreach assistants. We also host graduate and undergraduate interns whose interests match our work. Handshake is the platform we use for applications. Our primary student employment hiring season is in the late spring: March/April. However, we occasionally hire in the fall. Follow us on social media to see hiring announcements. Please contact us with any questions or inquiries!
