Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. supports and sponsors a variety of science programs in our community. Additionally, we offer paid summer internships designed to attract talented students from diverse backgrounds into a variety of project-based temporary assignments.
Our Summer Intern Program is designed to give college students an opportunity to complement their formal education with practical career-related work experience. While many of our summer positions exist in life sciences disciplines, we also offer assignments for students in other areas of our business, such as regulatory affairs, operations, legal and contracts.
Students are placed into assignments which compliment their university curriculum with hands-on experience. This program offers students an opportunity to work side-by-side with our employees to provide opportunities for skill-building, guidance and informal mentoring.
