2025 Internship

Delaware Electric Cooperative (DEC) is the only not-for-profit electric cooperative in the State of Delaware. Our mission is to provide clean, sustainable and reliable energy to hundreds of thousands of Delaware residents. As a cooperative, we are owned by those we serve - we don't have customers, we have members! As a not-for-profit utility, we are focused on doing what's best for our members and employees, not on profits. As part of the energy revolution sweeping the country, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint, investing in renewable energy, improving lives in our communities, and preparing Delaware for an electrified transportation infrastructure. DEC is recognized as one of the most progressive utilities in the nation. To maintain our high level of consumer satisfaction and our focus on innovation, we are looking for the next generation of exceptional employees. Our internship program is designed to provide college students with an immersive professional experience. Students will learn about the many aspects of the quickly changing utility industry, participate in hands-on projects that benefit Co-op members, and receive guidance and mentoring to help identify their passions and future goals. While post-internship employment is not guaranteed, many former DEC interns are now full-time members of our Co-op family. Internships take place from May-August. Interns can work in the following areas: Engineering Operations Marketing Accounting Finance IT & Cybersecurity Human Resources Safety and Security GIS Customer (Member) Service Supply Chain Management Placement in a department is based on a student's interests and passions.
