I believe this internship gave me way more than I ever expected from it. I believe the internship program at Bowen, in general, is excellent and leaps and bounds higher than any other company I have seen or heard about.

Bowen’s Commitment To Our Interns

Real Projects.

You’ll be on the front lines of complex projects that improve the quality of the air we breathe and waterways on which we depend. Whether it’s sewer re-directs in Indianapolis, generation station updates in Kentucky, or a colossal tank in Nashville, you will be placed on a Real Bowen Project.

Real Resources.

Bowen is $400 million dollar contractor with 55 years of experience. We provide you with the right amount of support to help you learn while leaving you freedom to find your own way as you work. Many Bowen employees, like our Vice President Bill (Pictured), started out at Bowen as interns. They’ve walked in your shoes and are ready to support you in your role.

Real Responsibility.

You’re a part of the team at Bowen, with responsibilities that help make your project a success. You may get to be in the trench box during a tie-in, or spreading concrete during a pour, or working on commissioning for a Water Treatment Plant.

Real Potential.

No matter where you come from or where you’re going, Bowen believes in continuous improvement and growing people. Whether you are dipping your toes in the water or fully sold on your career path, we are here to help you harness your potential. That’s why we eventually make full-time employees out of so many of our interns. We want your internship to lead you to your next opportunity, and we hope that’s with Bowen.
