Overview
Creativity. Innovation. A desire to effect positive change. That’s what it takes to work at Fuss & O’Neill – because that’s what we do for the communities in which we work: we create, innovate, and design long-lasting improvements that improve quality of life. Quality of life is also important on the job, so we’ve prioritized work-life balance by offering flexible/remote work opportunities, part-time benefits, and generous PTO. We believe that each day is an opportunity to support one another, to support our clients, and to support our communities. If you feel the same, then you’ve found your future. The Environmental Planning at Fuss & O’Neill offers students in civil engineering or urban planning hands-on experience in climate and environmental policy. This 8-to-12-week summer program allows interns to work on real client projects while focusing on professional growth and work-life balance. Interns will also complete an independent project on a topic of interest.
Portfolios of projects that interns may expect are included below:
Water and Natural Resources – Fuss & O’Neill
Climate Resilience and Sustainability – Fuss & O’Neill
Fuss & O’Neill supervisors will provide mentorship and feedback, with a hybrid work schedule based in Greater Boston.

Dates are flexible between June and August, with a preference for 10+ weeks and at least 25 hours per week.
