Out of the Schulich School of Business, the York Marketing Association has launched The Internship Project, connecting startups and businesses in the community with our undergraduate marketing students. We strive to provide our students with real-world experiences while also supporting organizations that may need an extra set of hands this summer.
This opportunity prompts your organization to bring on one or more undergraduate marketing students from the Schulich School of Business to be your interns, in a project-based experience. Students will work on one or more projects of your choosing over the internship period, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.
Students are available from May 01 to August 31, 2021, over the course of the summer. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, student placements will occur virtually.
All requests will come through the York Marketing Association team. If you are contacted by a student, please refer them to partnership@yorkmarketing.ca.

Project Examples
Students are capable of working on a substantial project for your organization over the course of the internship. It can be helpful to provide an intern with a starting project, but as the placement progresses there may be other duties/projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing the student with a central project gives the student and your organization a tangible goal to pursue, giving the internship structure. Project examples that students can complete may include, but are not limited to:
- Online Sales and Marketing Strategy
- Post-COVID Marketing and Business Strategy
- Digital Marketing Strategy
- SEO/Data Analytics/Market Research
- Major Customer Sales Strategy
Additional company criteria
Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:
Placements are unpaid experiences but honorariums are welcomed if your organization is able to provide a stipend for the student.
Provide a contract stating who the student's primary supervisor is over the course of the internship. It is useful to have a secondary contact as a backup as well. Students will interact with their primary contact daily (or as needed) using virtual communication tools.
