Internships are a great way to gain practical, real world experience while making connections that can last a lifetime and forever change the path of your career. Choosing an internship is one of the most important decisions you can make as nearly 70% of employers reported extending job offers to their interns in the 2008 National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Experiential Education Survey. That’s why it’s important that you find not only a company, but a community that is vibrant, growing and full of opportunity.

Owensboro, the largest city in Western Kentucky, is located adjacent to the Ohio River and approximately 200 miles from Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Lexington, Louisville, Nashville and St. Louis. Owensboro is a great place for high-tech entrepreneurs and start-up companies, and has created a life science partnership with Kentucky’s world-class research institutions and early stage funding resources. The community is also in the midst of an exciting and ambitious downtown revitalization plan to create an environment where individuals can live, work and play downtown.
