- The program also recognizes S.C. employers who provide work opportunities to USC students, helping to keep top talent in the state.
What’s next: USC will distribute the one-time payments to students on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Preference will be given to undergraduate students with internships and co-ops in the manufacturing, aerospace, energy, health and life sciences and financial services industries.
- Interested students can learn more and apply on the program webpage.
What they're saying: "I had to try to find a way to cover expenses such as traveling, food and transportation. Knowing I would be reimbursed for everything that I spent on the internship took a burden off me and my family." — Keynan Kennedy, fourth-year biological sciences major and 2023 South Carolina Internship Program participant
