About the role
ECI Construction Internship Program
The ECI Construction Internship Program offers students hands-on, real-world experience that goes far beyond the classroom. It's a chance to work alongside industry professionals, contribute to active projects, and gain a deeper understanding of what it means to build with purpose, collaboration, and integrity.
At ECI, we believe the best learning happens through doing. This is especially true when you're surrounded by a team that's committed to your growth. This construction management internship program represents more than just a new opportunity; it's a meaningful step toward cultivating the next generation of builders through integrity, collaboration, and purpose.
An Opportunity to Learn by Doing
Open to junior and senior students in construction management or construction science programs, the ECI internship is a summer-only opportunity designed to immerse participants in the day-to-day operations of commercial construction projects across Austin, TX.
From reviewing submittals and RFIs to observing job site logistics and supporting project schedules, interns will shadow and collaborate with seasoned project managers and superintendents. It's not about standing back—it's about stepping in and contributing to real progress on real job sites.
Explore a Range of Projects, Expand Your Perspective
ECI's project portfolio is as diverse as the people who power it. During the summer, interns will gain insight into a variety of commercial construction types: restaurant spaces, renovations, and even ground-up developments. Every assignment brings a new lesson, a new challenge, and a new opportunity to grow.
Culture Matters, and Ours Builds You Up
We take our work seriously, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. From BBQs in the parking lot to team community service events, ECI fosters an environment that balances hard work with human connection. Interns will be welcomed as full members of the team, with space to ask questions, offer ideas, and enjoy the ride.
