About The Position

Steel Dynamics is a leading industrial metals solutions company that produces lower-carbon, high-quality steel products primarily from recycled scrap.

The Nursing Internship at Steel Dynamics is unique because it offers interns the opportunity to build lasting relationships with employees rather than only seeing patients once in a clinical setting. Unlike many traditional nursing positions, occupational health nurses at SDI interact with the same employees on a regular basis, allowing them to understand individual health needs, track progress over time, and provide consistent support. This ongoing connection not only strengthens clinical skills but also helps interns see the direct impact of their care in fostering long-term employee wellness and safety. This internship is located at the Steel Dynamics Columbus Flat Roll Division located in Columbus, MS. This internship will take place during Summer 2026.
