MAYNARD ENTREPRENEURIAL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
The Maynard Program helps identify suitable internship opportunities and makes it more affordable for students to take advantage of them. To be considered for the program, a company must have less than $50 million in annual revenue and/or fewer than 200 employees. The Maynard Program is an outreach program and since 2004 is offered only once to any specific company. The company pays a stipend to the student intern and the Maynard Program supplements that money. While Tuck's Career Development Office and the Tuck Center for Private Equity and Entrepreneurship proactively source suitable internship opportunities, students are encouraged to identify firms that would be eligible and of interest to them. The Maynard Entrepreneurial Internship Program is funded by Tuck alumnus and Center Advisory Board member Fred Maynard T'85. Since the program's inception in 2000, over seventy students have participated in the Maynard Program. Students interested in applying for Maynard Program opportunities should contact the Career Development Office.

entrepreneurship to serve as MBA fellows.
The fellows participate in the center's numerous research projects and have the opportunity to meet and host visiting executives while they are on campus. The research projects include industry surveys, in-depth studies of current academic topics, informational interviews of practitioners and co-authoring of cases and reports for use in classes, conferences, and in the media. The center visitors and guest lecturers include institutional investors, venture capitalists, buyout investors, corporate venturers, angel investors, entrepreneurs, attorneys and accountants. The fellows focusing on research are: Jay Calhoun T'08, Nishkala Duddu T'08, Benny Finzi T'08, Michael Lindemann T'08, Emily Nielsten T'08, Scott Orleck T'08, Vikram Rana T'08, John Richards T'08.

The Dartmouth Office of Investments and the Center for Private Equity and Entrepreneurship are pleased to announce the launch of the Dartmouth Endowment Fellows Program. This program accepts three Tuck students each year for a year-long unpaid internship conducting projects related to institutional asset management and investment under the guidance of David Russ, Chief Investment Officer of Dartmouth College. Projects range from asset allocation modeling to assessing potential investments in public equities and bonds as well as alternative assets such as real estate, hedge funds, and private equity funds. The program is open to first-year and second-year Tuck students. Each project will have a specific timeline and minimum hours of work required per week. Final project results will be presented to senior members of the Office of Investments and the Center for Private Equity and Entrepreneurship. Certain projects may qualify for Independent Study credit. Successful completion of projects may lead to interviews for summer or full time job opportunities in the Office of Investments.
KAUFFMAN FELLOWS PROGRAM Kauffman fellows are hired by their venture capital firm as a standard, full-time employee and receive compensation and benefits as a regular employee. Fellows negotiate their salary with their employing firm and are expected to be compensated according to their experience level. The minimum requirements for application are a graduate degree and three years' full-time work experience. The program is now open to candidates regardless of citizenship. Some additional common characteristics of successful applicants include management of people and/or projects, as well as an applied understanding of company building, finance, and technology.

The Maynard Program is designed to help Tuck students gain the opportunity to work with dynamic
startup companies during their summer at Tuck. The program has two phases: a
meaningful summer entrepreneurship experience with a faculty advisor available on campus
and a required faculty-coordinated workshop back on campus in
the fall.
The Kauffman Fellows Program is an 24-month post-graduate fellowship in the
venture capital industry. As the Kauffman Fellows Program website indicates, fellows
spend most of their time in experiential hands-on learning at selected firms throughout the world, under the guidance of seasoned industry
mentors. Throughout the fellowship, Kauffman fellows engage in all phases of VC investing, including deal prospecting, terms negotiation, due
diligence, and management and exit of portfolio companies. Kauffman fellows come together several times a year for customized learning programs,
designed to complement their day-to-day experiences.
