DANKMEYER STUDENT INTERN PROGRAM
We have had the privilege of working with a wide range of students who are interested in various aspects of the prosthetic and orthotic development process. Ranging in age and experience from elementary school to college level, students have worked in conjunction with their school programs and with our patients and facilities to get real-life, hands-on experiences. Their projects have included designing 3D printed upper extremity assistive devices and prosthetic feet, developing educational literature for AFO wearers, and conducting surveys and analyzing patient outcomes.
We are not taking applications for long-term internships or short-term shadowing at this time.
We will post when opportunities are available.

Additional Resources
Students also often have a personal interest in exploring the possibility of a career in the O&P field. To become a prosthetist, orthotist, assistant, or technician, many schools require clinical hours prior to applying.
