2026 Spring Internships
Are you looking for a firm where you can grow your skills while working on multi-disciplinary projects? Where you work on projects that helps transform a community and make a lasting impact? Where you work for a firm that believes that all team members, no matter their experience level, can make a difference to our clients, their projects, and our firm. And that through the opportunity, you help REA cultivate a culture of life-long learning and mentorship in support of our own mission. If so, then REA is a place where you should work for your internship!
Overview
As an intern at REA, you will support planners, landscape architects, urban designers, and engineers in producing documents, reports, graphics, and materials for deliverables and community outreach efforts. We have many diverse projects, at many different stages, so you will compile data and conduct research in support of project presentations and deliverables, assist in the preparation of various planning studies, GIS analyses, graphics development and preparation, and other assignments to address project needs. You will also be able to participate in project steering committee and community outreach meetings. You will work under the supervision of a project manager and senior-level team members.
Capstone Project
Our internship experience includes a capstone project where all interns will develop research or help solve real-world design challenges on a specific topic they select. They are mentored throughout their entire internship by senior staff to develop their Capstone Project. At the conclusion of the program, the interns will present their project and findings with the entire REA studio.
