About the role

Students from any college across campus are invited to join the Landuyt Center intern team. Interns gain hands-on experience in entrepreneurship, community building, events, and outreach while developing technical, teamwork, and professional skills.

Open roles

• Marketing & Content Intern (1 opening) — Helps increase awareness of the Landuyt Center and tells the stories of students, founders, programs, and opportunities within the Illinois entrepreneurship ecosystem. This role combines social media management with photography and videography.
• Ecosystem Outreach & Community Intern (1–2 openings) — Serves as student connectors between the Landuyt Center and communities across the University of Illinois.
