Job Description

AECOM is seeking a Water/Wastewater Intern to be based in Columbus, Ohio. 

This position is expected to begin in May or June 2026.

The responsibilities of this position include, but are not limited to:

  • Internships are designed to introduce and build essential, hands-on skills that differ from those attained in the academic arena and help to enhance the transition from student to professional.
  • Interns are assigned duties that will provide a broad, well-rounded learning experience within their field of study.
  • As an intern, the candidate will gain experience in programs such as AutoCAD, ArcGIS, and PCSWMM while working on a variety of water treatment, wastewater treatment, green infrastructure, and storm/sanitary sewer projects. Having prior experience with any of these programs is helpful, but the candidate will have local peer mentorship on these programs to gain experience.  
  • Fieldwork may be required, but the majority of the time will be spent in the office.

  • Candidates must be pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Environmental Engineering or a related field, and must have completed at least 1 year of study.

Recent graduates must have been enrolled in their bachelor’s degree in the most previous school term with an interest in pursuing an advanced degree in the same or similar discipline at the conclusion of the internship.
