NC IDEA 2021 Summer Graduate Fellowship
NC IDEA is seeking talented students
with a demonstrated interest in startups and entrepreneurship for a fellowship opportunity. While the fellowship is targeted at 1st year
MBA candidates, students in other programs with corresponding interest are also
encouraged to apply.
The fellowship requires a full-time, 40
hour/week commitment for 10 weeks over the summer (June-August). Selected
candidates will be compensated at a rate of $750 a week.
This program is ideal for students interested in 1) having an investment
career with an angel/venture capital firm or 2) entrepreneurs and
