Summer 2025 Finance Internship Program- Budget

The NewYork-Presbyterian Finance Summer Intern Program educates undergraduate students on the overall financial operations of a hospital. The program is designed for those who are interested in the business aspect of healthcare and eager to explore the many facets of healthcare management.

The program will expose students to Senior Hospital Administration both within and outside of Finance as well as provide them with real-world experience in the corporate world. The program intends to create a pipeline of talent for future full–time employment post-graduation.

What You Can Expect:

The Internship is an 8-week program based in New York City starting in early June. At the end of the program, students present their project results to the Chief Financial Officer, Senior Leadership, Project Hosts and their Mentors.

Project work. Step into this crucial role, responsible for performing accounting and budgeting functions that help maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of our hospital.  Work in a team environment together with members of the budget department to learn hospital operating budget processes and methodologies.  Analyze various general ledger accounts, track expenses, review labor reports and conduct reconciliation activities as needed.  Open the door to opportunities to work on special data-oriented projects.

Mentor program. Each intern is assigned a mentor who offers support and guidance throughout the summer. Mentors are hand-selected from the Finance department and help mentees envision and take steps toward the careers they desire.

Hospital tours and volunteer opportunities. To put their project work in perspective, interns are given tours of the various NYP campuses as allowed and are given the opportunity to volunteer several hours a week at the hospital. Operational leaders explain connections to intern projects and provide the full picture of organizational activity.

Exposure to Senior Leadership. NYP leaders across many departments devote time to meet with the interns and share their personal stories, career paths, and invaluable professional advice.

Networking opportunities. From Meet & Greets to lunch sessions, the interns have many opportunities to partake in networking opportunities with employees across the organization.

Team building events. The program allows for creative ways to promote team bonding that fosters the culture of NYP.

The internship is not intended for students who wish to pursue careers in investment banking or for those that only demonstrate a pure finance interest.
