Examples of Associate Projects
Associates receive substantive and mission-critical projects. Typically, associates will work on one major project throughout the internship, with the chance to contribute to other ongoing projects in their placement office.
At the end of the internship, associates are expected to give a presentation on their project. These typically last 15-20 minutes and are followed by a 10 minute Q&A session. Final presentations are an integral part of the UELIP experience. They are attended by the associate’s team and other current associates, as well as anyone throughout the office who is interested.
Below are some examples of final presentation titles from past UELIP associates. These titles will give you a sense of the type of work that associates do during the course of their internship.
