D'Aniello Internships

The D'Aniello Entrepreneurial Internship Program is an internationally recognized initiative which provides unique entrepreneurial opportunities for 20 highly qualified Whitman undergraduate and graduate students. Each student intern works directly with an entrepreneur, president, or senior executive in a high-growth, innovative company located in the greater-Syracuse metropolitan area. Interns are expected to add meaningful value to the work environment and to produce a number of useful deliverables to company management.

Being selected as a D'Aniello intern is both an honor and a challenge as interns participate in exciting, hands-on, experience-based learning opportunities in entrepreneurial work environments.

Student Eligibility Requirements

Seniors or graduate students in good standing enrolled in Syracuse University are eligible for the program. Candidates must have strong grade point averages, evidence of extracurricular involvement, and an interest in entrepreneurship. D'Aniello intern candidates are required to enroll for independent study/experiential learning credit and to work between 15 and 20 hours per week for at least 13 weeks with their host company.
