Gain hands-on civil engineering experience, learn from supportive teammates, and help small communities.
Internships
Build your skills, explore your interests, and contribute to projects that help small communities thrive with an internship at Bollig Engineering.
At Bollig Engineering, an internship is an opportunity to connect what you’re learning in school with what happens on a real project. You’ll support licensed engineers and project teams, spend time in both the office and in the field, and see how infrastructure improvements make a difference for the people who depend on them.
We offer paid engineering internship opportunities based in Willmar, Minnesota; Two Harbors, Minnesota; Fargo, North Dakota; and Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Designing something on a computer is one thing. Seeing it take shape in a community is another. Civil engineering interns at Bollig have opportunities to experience both. You might help with project documentation, review plans with an engineer, or head to a construction site to see how those plans translate into work in the ground.
The mix of assignments depends on active projects, your location, and when you join us. But the goal is to gain practical experience that helps you understand the work, ask better questions, and discover what interests you.
Along the way, you may gain exposure to water, wastewater, streets, aviation, and other community infrastructure projects, depending on current assignments.
