Internships

InternshipsBringing together education and real-world experience to kick start your future!

Our internship program is designed to provide you with insight into the world of public accounting while developing skills, experiences and relationships within the firm. You will see the practical application of the information you are learning in college as you take part in client projects.

While interning, you will have access to professionals at all levels of the firm. The knowledge, skills, and relationships that you build during your internship with Brown Edwards can propel you to the front of the line when it comes to full-time employment. Our interns usually return for multiple seasons, steadily building on their skills and experiences so that they are able to take on more complex projects and responsibilities.
