DPR Construction has welcomed 38 participants to its Build Up High School Intern Program, the largest cohort since the program began in 2017 and a 42% increase in participation compared to 2023.
The program gives eligible high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to spend their summers working side by side with skilled project teams on major construction projects. Participants get the same experience as college-aged interns, learning about managing multi-million-dollar projects, the technology powering construction planning, schedule and design while also learning about the variety of roles and career paths in construction. Build Up is an eight-week program that pays participants weekly at hourly rates. Out of 154 participants in the program to date, five have been hired as full-time DPR employees and 25% have continued with the company as college interns.
