Summer 2027 Student Nurse Internship Program
About The Position
The Nurse Internship is a paid, skill-based clinical role designed to bridge nursing education and professional practice through RN preceptorship, interdisciplinary collaboration, and progressive skill development. Student Nurse Interns gain hands-on clinical experience under the direct supervision of a licensed Registered Nurse (RN). Individualized placements are available in hospital and ambulatory care settings so students can explore clinical specialties while building confidence, competence, and professional identity. Interns must work within an established student scope of practice, follow facility policies, and comply with Joint Commission requirements and applicable federal, state, and local regulations. The internship runs from June 1 through August 13, 2027, in Duluth or Superior, at $22 per hour. Interns may have the opportunity to continue as Senior Nurse Interns in a PRN capacity during the following fall and/or spring semesters, based on performance and availability. This is a temporary-status position and is not eligible for benefits.
