What's Great About the Internship Program at Gunwerks?

Working at Gunwerks over the past four summers has been nothing short of amazing! I tell people all the time that the Gunwerks crew feels like my second family, and I've felt that way ever since I started. There's no such thing as a bad day when you're working at Gunwerks!"


Tanner Jenkins, Former Intern

My internship with Gunwerks could not have been better! It gave real-world opportunities to use and improve skills learned in classes and helped me grow as a professional by equipping me with new skills. This, and the fact that everyone was welcoming, encouraging, and willing to help me learn, made it a first-class internship. I learned more in a few weeks than I thought was possible and cannot recommend it enough.
