Is this an internship?

No, not quite. For example: Instead of one intern, you get to work with a classroom of students (for about the same cost & time commitment as one, single summer intern). The students complete your project as part of their coursework with regularly scheduled check-in meetings (about 1-2 hours a week commitment on your end for projects ranging anywhere from 4-12 weeks) to ensure project success—all facilitated by SOC.
