The Sigma Chi Fraternity offers two, separate internship opportunities throughout the summer months.  One is with the Horizons Program, the other is with Sigma Chi Headquarters (HQ) and the Balfour Leadership Training Workshop (Balfour LTW).

Please read the descriptions below to see which one you are most interested in pursuing. The applications for each internship are separate, but undergraduates are allowed to apply for both opportunities. Traditionally, undergraduate members can only be accepted into one or the other each year. 

Horizons Internship

The Sigma Chi Fraternity has taken great strides in continually providing leadership development opportunities for each of its undergraduate members. In addition to participation in the undergraduate Horizons program, undergraduates are also eligible to serve the Fraternity as an intern on the logistics team for an entire year after attending Horizons as a participant. 

The first and primary role interns play is a liaison between Horizons participants and headquarters staff. Interns are responsible for establishing contact with each and every participant to ensure participants are adequately prepared for their session. 

The interns’ secondary responsibilities include serving as a critical member of Team Aspen, the on-site logistical team, during the session. Interns will provide logistical support in addition to contributing to critical planning and development decisions that will ensure the proper, efficient and successful execution of the session.
