Summer 2027 Finance Internship Program

The NewYork-Presbyterian Finance Summer Intern Program educates undergraduate students on the overall financial operations of a hospital. The program is designed for those who are interested in the business aspect of healthcare and eager to explore the many facets of healthcare management.

Within the program, the Office of Investments is seeking a summer intern who is keen on learning about investing and the supporting processes. The work of the intern will directly impact the investment research and manager due diligence process of the Investments team. He/she will have the opportunity to attend investment manager meetings, familiarize with specific software and systems and research current investment topics of interest. The intern’s work will benefit NewYork-Presbyterian by helping grow the hospital endowment which in turn helps fund important initiatives that directly impact the hospital’s mission and patient care. NewYork-Presbyterian relies on investment income to fund short and long-term capital planning. The goal is for the intern’s research to be an accretive part of the investment portfolio for years to come.

The Finance Summer Intern program will also expose students to Senior Hospital Administration both within and outside of Investments and Finance as well as provide them with real-world experience in the corporate world.

What You Can Expect

The Internship is an 8-week program based in New York City starting in early June. At the end of the program, students present their project results to the Chief Financial Officer, Senior Leadership, Project Hosts and their Mentors.

Project Work

Investments Intern Program: The Investments summer intern will attend both internal and external meetings with staff and investment managers. The intern will obtain a general understanding of the asset classes, investment strategies, investment operations and fund accounting.

The intern will assist with writing meeting summary notes, researching and summarizing current investment topics of interest and help with other projects as needed. An interest in learning about investments is required.

Mentor Program. Each intern is assigned a mentor who offers support and guidance throughout the summer. Mentors are hand-selected from the Finance department and help mentees envision and take steps toward the careers they desire.

Hospital Tours and Volunteer Opportunities. To put their project work in perspective, interns are given tours of the various NYP campuses as allowed and are given the opportunity to volunteer several hours a week at the hospital. Operational leaders explain connections to intern projects and provide the full picture of organizational activity.

Exposure to Senior Leadership. NYP leaders across many departments devote time to meet with the interns and share their personal stories, career paths and invaluable professional advice.

Networking Opportunities. From Meet & Greets to lunch sessions, the interns have many opportunities to partake in networking opportunities with employees across the organization. Separately, the Office of Investments will give the Investments intern opportunities to attend networking events allowing them to meet industry peers and learn more about the world of endowments and foundations.

Team Building Events. The program allows for creative ways to promote team bonding among the interns that fosters NYP culture.
