The Nebraska Corn Board (NCB) has opened the internship application period for five internship experiences beginning in May 2024. The internships vary in location, focus and scope but are designed to provide students with an overview of Nebraska’s corn industry through real-world professional examples and experiences.

Four of the five internships are summer-long experiences that are based outside of Nebraska. These four experiences are with cooperating partners of NCB. The remaining position is a yearlong internship where one student will work in the Nebraska Corn office in Lincoln.
