MC3 Logistics Leadership Fellow
Professional Readiness and Business Operations Associate
An Experiential Leadership and Early Career Development Opportunity for University of Washington Students and Recent Graduates
The MC3 Logistics Leadership Fellows Program is an immersive professional readiness experience designed to help students bridge the gap between academic achievement and workplace excellence. This is not a traditional corporate internship. Fellows participate in the day-to-day operations of a growing business while developing leadership, communication, analytical, and professional skills that prepare them to contribute immediately in future roles.
Applicants must be enrolled at the University of Washington or have graduated within the previous twelve months. Students from business, economics, communications, finance, marketing, entrepreneurship, information systems, and related disciplines are encouraged to apply.
Fellowships typically run for eight to twelve weeks. Before the engagement begins, MC3 Logistics creates a customized development plan and shares it with the student and the Foster School. Compensation is $25 per hour for 20 hours per week.
