Internship Program Expands Industry Exposure

Johnson Controls' 2026 internship cohort includes students working across a broad range of technical and business functions. Assignments span engineering and software development as well as finance, legal, communications and IT.

The internships are structured around projects that give participants experience working on business challenges and collaborating with teams. The program also provides mentorship and opportunities for interns to develop problem-solving and analytical skills.

The company selected 160 interns from a North American applicant pool of nearly 12,000. Participants are distributed among 27 locations.

Building a Technical Workforce Pipeline

The internship program is designed to expose students to work connected to building systems, infrastructure and other markets served by Johnson Controls.

The range of disciplines represented in the program gives participants opportunities to gain experience beyond a single technical specialty. For construction and building-industry employers, similar programs can provide an early pathway for developing talent in engineering, technology and other functions supporting project delivery and building operations.

Yello's Top 100 recognition evaluates internship programs based on areas including professional development, intern engagement, workplace culture, career opportunities and program design.

Why It Matters

Construction, building technology and infrastructure companies increasingly require talent with both technical and digital capabilities. Structured internship programs can give students practical experience before entering the full-time workforce while allowing employers to develop potential candidates across multiple disciplines.
