Transformative Talent Internships

TTI Non-Profit and Social Innovation Fair

Graduate students in the Faculty of Arts, Werklund School of Education, Faculty of Social Work and any program with a passion for community impact are invited to explore meaningful, paid internship opportunities that drive real change in the community.

Hosted by the Faculty of Graduate Studies’ TTI team, this inaugural fair on Aug. 28 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. MT connects you with up to 10 local non-profits and social innovators eager to collaborate with UCalgary graduate students. These 16-week, part-time, project-based internships offer a chance to sharpen your transferable skills while supporting organizations that make a difference. Space is limited and registration is required to attend.

To attend, students must be eligible for TTI and can register through Elevate under Faculty of Graduate Studies > Graduate Studies Events Calendar.

Transformative Talent Internships (TTI) are skills internships for graduate students at the University of Calgary. TTIs provide graduate students with the opportunity to explore their transferable skills and gain professional experience in a work-integrated learning context. TTIs are not intended to be research or work opportunities directly related to a student's graduate program.
