Host Interns
Each NGSC student must complete 3 internships - one in each of the private, public, and nonprofit sectors - before graduating.
Creating internship opportunities is a great way to form a talent pipeline of ASU NGSC students. For more information on how to create an internship description and/or internship program, please use ASU’s Internship Guide.

Connect with Mission Teams
Mission Teams organize our NGSC students into groups based on their interest in deepening and broadening their knowledge about a particular social issue. Student groups, in size 2-20+, engage in student-led exploration, research, and solutions with community partners, university affiliates, and the public over the school year. Examples of Mission Teams include Healthcare, Education, Sustainability, STEM, Immigration, LGBTQIA, Gender Equity, and Animal Rights to name a few.
Teach workshops
New NGSC students participate in a series of workshops over their first year to understand the core values of NGSC, character-driven leadership styles, teamwork, public service, various sectors including nonprofit, government, corporate and military functions, and student success strategies. We need professionals to guide, teach and facilitate these workshops over the Fall semester each year.
Additionally, we invite professionals to represent their industries and speak in various classes that students must attend while earning a Certificate in Cross-Sector Leadership through ASU's School of Public Affairs.
Engage with Class Projects
Work with a team of highly motivated NGSC students who will spend the semester helping you achieve a goal set out by your organization. In our Community Impact Lab Course, students use Design Thinking to find human-centered solutions for your organization’s challenges. Learn more about the process, commitment, and timeline here.
