Newport News Shipbuilding offers internships which allow students to gain experience in technical or administrative positions and provide the opportunity to gain experience in their field of study as well as an understanding of our business. This opportunity could possibly lead to future full time employment but is not guaranteed. Some engineering, technical, and waterfront positions may require the ability to physically access a wide variety of work sites, including those aboard ships under various stages of construction or overhaul, including the use of vertical and inclined ladders, and may involve limited kneeling, stooping, standing, etc.
