Who can apply?

  • Norfolk Southern describes a paid student internship program across business, engineering, IT, marketing and other career areas.
  • The program overview does not publish one undergraduate class-year or degree rule; the current position controls its education and skill requirements.
  • Internships run for 10–12 weeks of a semester and can be offered in fall, spring and summer.
  • The overview describes a hybrid work environment, but remote days depend on the role and do not remove its office or site location.
Easy to miss

Hybrid does not mean location-free. Confirm the office or operating site, required in-person days and transportation before deciding the role fits.

Our editorial advice · not employer requirements

How to prepare a stronger application

For operations or engineering, explain a system, measurement or safety decision. For business, technology or marketing, show a concrete deliverable and the decision it supported.

Rail work connects office planning with physical operations. Prepare to discuss how you communicate across teams and how you respond when an assumption or schedule changes.
