UNH’s Social Innovation Internship provides a great way for students to gain experience working for businesses that have a social mission. The program is also a meaningful way for UNH alumni to engage with their alma mater.
The program, administered through UNH’s Center for Social Innovation and Enterprise, started in 2011 to help students gain experience with employers that integrate social innovation into their company mission and strategy. The center is a joint venture of the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics and the Carsey School of Public Policy. Economics alumnus Paul Bradley ’86, president of ROC USA, which helps homeowners in manufactured home communities buy their communities as co-ops, has been involved with the Social Innovation Internship program since its inception.
