The role

At Bristol Myers Squibb, our employees often ask, “Who are you working for?”—a question that fuels collaboration, accountability, and urgency in our work. Our purpose-driven culture inspires us to discover, develop, and deliver innovative medicines to prevail over serious diseases. We offer uniquely interesting and meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and a supportive environment that values inclusion, wellbeing, flexibility, and comprehensive benefits.

This internship offers exposure to regulatory processes in the pharmaceutical industry and provides hands-on experience in a cross-functional environment.

Where you work matters – because collaboration, innovation and patient impact happen in many settings.
