Have you ever wanted to work for a startup? Now’s your chance!


NYU operates three incubator programs (Varick Street, DUMBO, Urban Future Lab) and is home to 60 of the best startup companies in NYC. The Polytechnic School of Engineering offers a program for paid internships at the Incubator called SPIKE Internship Program (http://bit.ly/nyuspike) and…


We Want to Expand It To Your School!


In order to show that there is student support for the program we need to secure 200 signatures from each school of NYU in order to secure the funding to get students these paid internship positions.


Please sign the petition to show your support to have paid internships at the incubator from your school.


These internships will help you:

-Help you get a job

-Understand how startups operate

-Learn and soft skills you can use at any job

and much more
