Overview
Are you a current college student looking to gain meaningful, hands-on experience? You’ve come to the right place! Discover what our internship program has to offer.
Details
Blizzard Entertainment was founded in 1991 by three new college graduates looking to build a future doing something they were extremely passionate about. If you're looking for an exciting internship or a great job right out of college, this could be the place for you!
Our Internship Program gives students the opportunity to work directly with development teams and business operations departments to gain hands-on experience.
For 12 paid weeks every summer, interns embed themselves with our teams to learn, collaborate, and contribute to the intensity and fun of creating epic entertainment.
Internship opportunities vary from year to year, but often include game development such as:
- 3D art,
- animation,
- programming,
- design,
- production, and
- quality assurance.
We also offer internships in business support such as
- finance,
- business
- intelligence, and
- community.
Oh, and did we mention it’s paid?
We offer internships in our Irvine, CA and Austin, TX offices. But if you’re not in our neck of the woods, don’t despair! We provide housing for non-local students.
