Apply to Join Our Team!
Each semester, COAR offers an internship, and there are spots for 3-5 interns. The COAR internship allows students to gain an inside look into the planning and execution of COAR events. Interns will learn about communication, marketing, event planning, project management, community outreach, and team building. Interns are trained in software programs such as Canva, myUMW (Presence), and Doodle Polls. After the internship experience, students are eligible to apply for a COAR staff position.
