Please reply to: Hema Prabhu (innovations.partnerships@utoronto.ca)

Mitacs Enterprise is a competitive 6-month internship and business mentorship program that gives graduates of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) disciplines an opportunity to work with small to medium-sized companies (SME) operating in a STEM sector throughout Southern Ontario.

The program matches high-potential participants to SMEs and provides interns with three days of business and management training, a peer support network and progress monitoring to encourage business and skill development of the intern and knowledge transfer to the SME.

The interns receive experience working with a company that can benefit from their technical and business management training. The SMEs get access to a highly-talented and trained workforce who can help them meet the demands of their business environment immediately and in the years to come. SMEs will not only find that they have qualified, motivated interns who are eager to make a difference, it will also provide an excellent opportunity to evaluate future potential talent for their business.
