Nickelodeon Animation Studios has been named one of the 10 best internships for college students in the United States by Vault.com.

The website cited the studio’s offering of in-depth, hands-on work experience in a wide variety of jobs and departments, from animation production to finance, development, CGI, human resources and business and legal affairs.

"Our goal at Nickelodeon Animation Studios has always been to remain leaders in the industry, whether its producing a number-one rated show or running a top 10 internship program," said Ashley Morley, internship coordinator, and Josilin Torrano, recruiter. “We are thrilled that our internship program has been recognized for its success in offering students classes with executives, opportunities to take animation skills tests, and much more – all resulting in a 1 in 3 chance at being hired. And, we are both examples of the programs success, having been former interns ourselves."

Nick takes between 10 and 30 interns for academic credit and no pay. Internships run 8 to 16 weeks, 16 to 30 hours a week in the spring, summer and fall semesters. The studio’s internships are open to sophomores, juniors and seniors, with ongoing applications.

  This is by far the best internship program out there for animation! I am one of 5 interns who were hired just from the spring semester itself. Interns will attend classes, taught by people from various departments of the studio about these departments. AND most people in the studio will be more than happy to review portfolios and provide feedback. Those are just a couple things a Nickelodeon internship offers.

  Nick was truly the best internship experience I ever had. I worked firsthand with Ashley & Josilin and they were the best \\\"bosses\\\" anyone could ask for.
