About The Position

Are you looking for a construction project management internship that offers real-world, job site experience? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments, love problem-solving, and get energized by seeing your work take shape? We’re seeking a get-it-done, organized, and proactive individual to join the LV Construction and Development team to support on-the-ground project management efforts for our latest student housing development called "Rambler Riverfront" next to the Purdue University campus in West Lafayette, IN. This is not your run-of-the-mill coffee-fetching internship. You’ll work directly with the Construction Manager and Director of Construction on day-to-day project execution — including field quality verification, RFI/Submittal management, and schedule reporting from Design through Construction Completion. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves, learn from the best, and contribute to meaningful projects, this internship will give you real exposure to the full construction process.
