Peter C. Dozzi Pittsburgh Internship Initiative
The Peter C. Dozzi Pittsburgh Internship Initiative was created in 2004 through a generous gift by Mr. Peter C. Dozzi, founder of , a Pittsburgh organization founded in 1957. The scholarship money is made available through the Carnegie Mellon Career and Professional Development Center for students who will be staying in the Pittsburgh Region to complete a summer internship experience.
This is a needs-based grant which aims to help offset expenses incurred during internships. Scholarships of up to $2,500 each are awarded to individuals across a diverse group of Carnegie Mellon's six colleges for the summer. Internships must be unpaid or low-paying. The scholarship money is disbursed in May or June as a non-qualified scholarship payment. Internships typically cover a 6 to 10-week period (180 hour minimum). Carnegie Mellon on-campus positions and summer research internships are not eligible for the Dozzi Fund. Research at Pittsburgh institutions outside of 一本道无码 is allowed. For research based internships at 一本道无码, contact the Undergraduate Research Office (URO) for summer research grant and funding information.
