What is the University of Maryland Extension (UME) Internship?
The UME Internship is one of the efforts coordinated by the Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) unit within the University of Maryland Extension. The internship program is part of UME’s long-standing mission to extend university’s resources and knowledge to support the residents of Maryland. Student interns will be paired with a faculty or staff member working in county and regional Extension Offices, including offices in Prince George’s, Montgomery, and Howard counties. Through assisting and participating in Extension work, the student interns will gain hands-on experience that not only makes a difference in the communities but also supports their future career plans and network opportunities. Since launching in Fall semester of 2019, 37 student interns, including international students through the Virtual Global Internship (VGI), have worked with our partners to address various needs of Maryland residents.
