We are pleased to announce the Hagedorn Internship Award program. Funding is available to Marxe students who participate in an unpaid internship position at a public service nonprofit organization or government agency.
The Hagedorn Internship Award is made possible through the generosity of the Hagedorn Family who continues to honor the legacy of Amy Hagedorn, an alumna of Baruch College.
The Award
The award is up to $3,000 per recipient. The award funds will be issued in two installments. The first half will be awarded once the Marxe students have been selected and the second half will be awarded upon completion of the internship work during the specified time-frame and submitting a satisfactory Employer/Supervisor Evaluation.
