The听听program matches an industry or not-for-profit partner鈥檚 contribution to the cost of a collaborative internship project. Students and/or PDFs can receive up to $15,000 in funding. For example, one internship unit* can see that $7,500 in funding from the project partner (subject to applicable tax) matched with $7,500 from Mitacs per each 4-6 month period of work completed.听

The Mitacs participant completes half of their internship on-site with the industry partner and the other half at the university under faculty supervision. The Mitacs participant is responsible for completing a report about the project that is reviewed by their faculty supervisor and presented to the industry partner.听

This is a great opportunity for students and PDFs to gain relevant hands-on industry skills in a non-academic environment while also building their own professional network.听

*It's possible to have multiple internship units per project.听听

Please note: there鈥檚 also funding available to student entrepreneurs through the Mitacs听Accelerate Entrepreneur听program. Read more about it in our听Information for Startups section.

The Mitacs Halifax representative is Aishwarya Mohan.听If you have any questions, please contact her by email at amohan@mitacs.ca听or by phone at (782) 641-2916.
