COVID-19 Update from AFE
The health and safety of our interns remain a top priority. While we encourage students to apply for these internships, we are evaluating the timing of all internships and will grant extensions as needed to ensure the safety of our host employers, their staff, and the interns as we continue to monitor the situation surrounding COVID-19 and the Delta variant.
