Note: McGill’s new Course Catalogue will replace the eCalendar. The Course Catalogue is expected to go live the week of April 22nd. When the new site is published, "mcgill.ca/study" will be redirected to the new Course Catalogue website.
Course information on this site is not reflective of offerings for the 2025–2026 academic year. Some irregularities may occur as we move operations to the incoming Course Catalogue.
Real world experiences await.
What is the EIP?
The McGill Engineering Internship Program (EIP) offers full-time undergraduate engineering students in non co-op degree programs the possibility of participating in industry-related internships and having their experiences formally recognized. With an increasing number of employers requiring applicants to be part of a formal university coop/internship program, the EIP enables non co-op students to be eligible and apply to those internship opportunities.
Students must be registered full-time in their degree program before the proposed internship term and must be returning to full-time studies following the completion of the internship.
Internships must meet a standard durational requirement of 4, 8, 12, or 16 months.
Internships must be considered full-time (at least 35 hours per week).
Internships must be a paid position with a salary based on the student’s experience and level of study; unpaid internships are not eligible.
Internships must be related to the student’s degree program.
International students are also eligible, but will require a co-op work permit to participate.
Students cannot miss more than two academic terms for internships.
Students may be eligible to pursue one academic course (maximum of 4 credits) while on an approved internship term, pending certain conditions.
