About The Position

Coeur Mining is seeking an Environmental Intern for its summer internship program at a U.S. operating mine site. The program offers real-world, on-the-job experience, mentorship from industry professionals, and ownership of projects with a tangible impact on the mine. Interns will collaborate creatively and technically on a group presentation identifying an area for company improvement. The program culminates in an expensed, paid trip to Chicago, where interns present their project, meet and learn from company leaders, and network with early-career participants across the company.
