UK Stuckert Career Center’s Post

Calling all employers that have hosted a University of Kentucky student... consider nominating that student for the UK Intern of the Year Award! The UK Intern of the Year honors undergraduate and graduate students who exceeded expectations, took ownership and initiative, grew as a professional, and made an outstanding impact on their organization. Businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies as well as UK offices, departments, and faculty can nominate a student for UK Intern of the Year that completed an internship between the period of January 2024 and December 2024. The award is labeled "UK Intern", but this does not exclude students completing other experiential education experiences such co-ops, fellowships, and clinicals. The students experience should have been a high impact form of learning that integrates knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skill development in a professional setting.
