Part of MBA funds for summer internships are donations made by members of the prior MBA class through the student-led Give-A-Day Fund. Members of the MBA class donate a day of their regular salary in order to support those who have pursued social impact internships.
Eligibility
- Only internships served prior to graduation from U-M are eligible. (You must graduate no earlier than the December following your summer internship.)
- Internships must be at least 10 weeks in length and total funding for graduate students (including B+I’s contribution) must not exceed $15,000. Total funding for BBA students (including B+I’s contribution) must not exceed $7,000.
- Eligible internships include those with nonprofits or government agencies. Funding for social enterprise and other for-profit internships is limited and considered on a case-by-case basis.
Please note that we do not support courses, field placements, part-time activities, or projects that are undertaken for course credit. If you are uncertain if your internship or other summer project is eligible for the Summer Fund, contact B+I at rosssummerfund@umich.edu.
Student Experience
“My learning this summer, particularly in the field of public health, was significant, thanks to a truly challenging and rewarding internship that would not have been possible without the B+I funding.”
