INL Internships Available
The Idaho National Laboratory offers internships at
a variety of levels – undergraduate through post
doctoral with valuable work and life experience.
INL internships, like the lab's research, span a
wide range of science, technology, engineering and
math (STEM) fields and support roles.
INL interns also receive extensive training - like
resume' writing and communication strategies - to
help improve their "soft skills." In addition,
they can attend lectures that feature worldrenowned researchers discussing a broad range of
energy topics from nuclear non-proliferation to
hybrid energy systems.
Interns participate in lab wide tours to enhance
their knowledge of INL, its history and
missions. The INL site tours include visits to
Experimental Breeder Reactor-1, where nuclear
fission generated the world's first usable amount
of electricity, the Advanced Test Reactor, and a 3D
