The Sustainability Catalyst Internship Program is now open!
The program offers University of Toronto graduate students paid opportunities to work on real-world sustainability solutions with partners across the Greater Toronto Area. Students work with a dedicated mentor from the host organization to complete a defined project over 250 hours between May and September. The student will produce a deliverable (a report, a survey) for the partner which will also be showcased at a closing event and online. The internships are managed by the secretariat of the President’s Advisory Committee on the Environment, Climate Change, and Sustainability (CECCS). Students will move through the program as a cohort, and will receive career development opportunities and project support from CECCS along the way.
