Gig Internship Program

The Gig Internship Program is a short-term internship with an organization or internal University department. Gig Internships are classified as project-based learning experiences that could help Charlotte students develop more marketable skills and experience. 

  • Projects can range in duration, extending from a brief 10 hours or a few days to as much as six weeks. Although projects can span a longer period of time, student participation cannot exceed 40 TOTAL hours.
  • Hourly/weekly commitments are determined by Student Employment and are based on existing on-campus employment and class level.
  • All opportunities will be presented to the Undergraduate student population only.
  • The Career Center will compensate students at a rate of $13 per hour for their participation in this program.
  • Due to University policy, short-term projects are not eligible for academic credit.
