About the Program
Syngenta’s internships allow students to explore what the agribusiness industry looks like at the company. Internships take place in the company’s Seeds and Crop Protection departments and offer students the chance to apply what they’ve learned in the classroom to real-world problems. Interns will shadow full-time employees as well as take on their own projects. Internships are typically 12 weeks long and take place over the summer.
