These degrees are typically offered at community colleges and are designed to provide students with both theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills in a specific field. Internships included as part of the curriculum allow students to gain real-world experience, build professional networks, and improve their employability after graduation. This type of program is ideal for those seeking to enter the workforce quickly or to transfer to a four-year institution for further study.

To thrive as a Student Internship Associate Degree holder, you need foundational knowledge in your field of study, strong organizational skills, and the completion or pursuit of an associate degree. Familiarity with industry-specific software or tools, such as Microsoft Office Suite or specialized applications relevant to your discipline, is often required. Effective communication, teamwork, and a willingness to learn are essential soft skills that help interns integrate with professional teams. These competencies enable you to contribute meaningfully during your internship while gaining valuable experience and making a positive impression on potential employers.

Both serve as valuable stepping stones but differ in depth and credentialing.

Job description

About NORPAC:

From its world-class manufacturing facility in Longview WA., NORPAC delivers a broad range of high-quality papers to customers across the United States and around the world. NORPAC makes high-quality and environmentally conscious packaging paper, copy paper, and printing paper grades.

NORPAC is a team-based work environment where individuals integrate safety, teamwork, innovation, and citizenship as core values in pursuit of world class performance while leading a principle based, process disciplined organization.

Student Summer Internship Program:

Come gain valuable experience this summer by joining NORPACs Summer Internship Program! Students are invited to fill in critical roles within the organization to ensure smooth operations of the mill over the summer. Students will have a chance to learn skills in manufacturing, operations, maintenance, and administrative support. As such, NORPAC requires students to be safety-focused, team players, quick learners, motivated, able to complete hands-on production work, and able to perform duties in a manufacturing setting. Applications must be submitted two weeks prior to the internship to be considered for the role.

To Qualify, You Must:

  • Age: Be at least 18 years old.
     
  • Enrollment: Be enrolled in a college for fall 2026 full-time (at least 12 credits per term/semester on average). Proof of enrollment in a degree or certification program will be required.
     
  • Grades: Be earning satisfactory grades (minimum 5 cumulative GPA) in courses. An official, sealed copy of the student's most recent OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT (not grade report) MUST be included with the application.
     
  • Performance: Be eligible for rehire if previously employed in the program. Failure to satisfactorily perform the job by meeting the overall job requirements will jeopardize future employment.
     
  • Testing: Be able to pass a pre-employment drug screen, pre-employment background check and post-employment physical before the first day of work.
     
  • Training: Be available to attend a Summer Student Orientation, (if new to the program).
     
  • Availability: Be available to work all of their summer period for one of the following terms: May 26th - August 21st, 2026, or June 22nd - September 18th, 2026. Students must be available for a minimum of 75 days.

* There is a limit on the number of years a student is eligible to work under the program. A student attending a community college for two years (such as LCC) is eligible for two years of summer employment, unless they are continuing on to a four-year school. A student going to a four-year school (such as University of Oregon) cannot work more than four summers. (In extenuating circumstances, students' applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis).

Schedule:

NORPAC has 8-hour day shift and rotating 12-hour shift positions available. Positions will be assigned based on experience and business needs.
 

Compensation:

The Summer Student Internship Program is a paid internship with a pay range of $23.39 - $23.99 per hour, depending on experience and shift assignment.
