This will be achieved by assembling teachers, engineers, scientists, and technologists at the University of Alberta, InnoTech Alberta, and industry partners to provide work-integrated training on real projects and relevant equipment. Candidate interns will be matched with hosts for full-time or part-time internships of up to 8 or 16 weeks. All interns will participate in leadership and entrepreneur training at the Peter Lougheed Leadership College. The interns will receive counselling and coaching for resiliency and managing the demands of professional careers.
