Long Beach Community Internship Program (LBCIP)
Internships open doors for student job placement. However, for students who need part-time jobs and financial aid to pay for college, unpaid internships are impossible to complete. The Long Beach Community Internship Program (LBCIP) is a collaborative internship program that creates pathways for CSULB juniors and seniors, many of whom are native to Long Beach, to engage in meaningful paid internship opportunities while they apply coursework to real world settings, hone professional skills, network, and explore local career opportunities.
We are intentional about establishing a COMMUNITY of support for interns that includes LBCIP Team members, internship course instructors, and supervisors at their internship site placements.
