KISI is proud to partner with local nonprofits and social enterprises to offer internships to both domestic and international Kelley undergraduate students. Open to second semester freshman through seniors and all business majors or minors, these internships are an opportunity to gain specialized experience with a focus on social entrepreneurship, economic development, and community service. Practice the marketing, management, communication, accounting, or finance skills you are learning in the classroom to make a tangible difference in the Bloomington community.

How to Apply
1. Review the internship opportunities and choose no more than three opportunities for which to apply.
2. Complete the KISI Internship Application. You only need to submit one application, even if you are applying for two or three internships.
Note: Summer 2021 internship applications are now closed. Fall 2021 internship applications will open in August.
KISI internships are unpaid and available for the following students to apply: Kelley School of Business (KSOB) undergraduates that have completed at least one semester on campus (second semester freshmen-senior), KSOB minors, and LAMP students.
Applications open on August 18th.
Applications must be submitted by 11:59pm September 12th (for students applying for CPT we recommended as soon as possible).
Each student may apply for up to three internship opportunities. Only one KISI Student Internship Application should be submitted.
Each internship opportunity will be closed and removed once it reaches 10 applicants. If you’re interested in a position, don’t wait to apply.
Applications open August 18th for fall 2021 internships. Applications must be submitted by 11:59pm September 12th. Agencies will contact students as they receive their applications if they would like to schedule an interview. All students will need to complete an orientation with the KISI office prior to starting their internship opportunity.
Students will be contacted by the organization for interviews and more information about the hiring process. KISI expects students to respond to organizations in a timely, professional way—even to turn down an interview of offer. Failure to communicate reflects poorly on the student and on the KISI internship program.
