About American Electric Power Internship Program

The American Electric Power Internship is designed as an abbreviated version of a full-time position at the company, gearing interns for later entry into the company. Interns enrolled in the computer science track receive practical experience in web development, script writing, programming, database development, and more. Engineering interns work with analyzed workflow, interpreted air permits, and benchmarked data. 

Eligibility
