"When I look back on my internship at Coherent, I think the biggest accomplishment is the growth I've seen in myself I'm especially proud of how I've learned to approach my work from a more global perspective and also think beyond just one team, one location, or even one point of view.."

- Julia Baker, Cornell University


Student Opportunities

At Coherent, students are valued members of our team and have the opportunity to make meaningful contributions from day one. In addition to hands-on project experience, our internship program includes opportunities to connect with fellow interns and colleagues across the organization through virtual and in-person networking events, team-building activities, and more.

Inclusive Culture

Inclusion is not just a principle here — it’s a priority backed by action. We are focused on increasing representation across all levels, expanding equitable access to development and advancement opportunities, and strengthening accountability for inclusive leadership.
