This information session will provide an overview of SUNY Potsdam's Presidential Internship Program (PIP) for Summer 2026. Like all credit-bearing internships, the PIP is administered by the Lougheed Center for Applied Learning (LoCAL) at SUNY Potsdam. This is a fully funded internship program that runs in the summer, which matches North Country sites with SUNY Potsdam student interns in the summer. The application and matching process (and full funding that students receive) makes the PIP different than other internships that run during the academic year. Student applications will open in the new year! Learn more about the PIP here.
We will discuss the following topics so that anyone in attendance better understands the structure of the PIP:
• How the funding works
• How the internship credits work
• Application and matching process between local sites and Potsdam students
• Review of site/student matches from Summer 2026
• Q&A
* Students are encouraged to consider this information when meeting with their academic advisor and faculty mentors for planning summer coursework, degree plans, etc.
