Post a Job or Internship Opportunity

There are two ways to post a job or share an internship opportunity with students:

  1. Share your opportunity directly with CEGE undergraduate students by completing this intake form with information about your opportunity. Once approved, your opportunity will be emailed directly to all CEGE undergraduate students.
  2. Share your opportunity on GoldPASS powered by HandshakeBy posting your opportunity to the University-wide internship and job board, your opportunity will be searchable by all University of Minnesota students. As an employer, you also have the opportunity to search and direct message qualified students.
