The program gives undergraduate students an opportunity to gain work experience with NCDOT and learn about a career in the transportation industry. The internships include professional development workshops on skills such as résumé building, business writing and networking.
For the fellowship program, recent graduates are offered a two-year individual experience tailored to their interests, involvement and goals.
Applicants who apply to the fellows program must have graduated within the past three years with a bachelor’s or master’s from a state historically Black college or university or a minority-serving institution.
