Internship Opportunities

An internship at VELCO provides learning opportunities to college students who are interested in careers in power or electric utility engineering, environmental management, technology, telecommunications, and other related fields. It is also an opportunity for VELCO to strengthen students’ knowledge, skills, and potential for future employment. One of the most rewarding ways to jumpstart your career is to gain a hands-on experience in a welcoming company like VELCO, one of the best places to work in Vermont and a leader in New England’s utility industry.
