2026 Summer Internship Product Development

Product Development works with colleagues throughout the entire pharmaceutical development process, from discovery to commercial launch and beyond. Whether it is small molecule or biological therapeutics, PD delivers optimized chemical syntheses, formulations, and control strategies for our products. Additionally, PD manufactures, packages, labels, and distributes all clinical supplies for all clinical studies that our company runs in more than 50 countries. We are looking for candidates who are proven team players; appreciate the challenge of pursuing unique scientific discovery in an emerging field; and who demonstrate solid operational, interpersonal, project management and collaborative skills. We believe this starts with our summer intern program.

Summer interns will work with mentors for ~10 weeks on a guided research project within a PD Project Team. The program is organized to ensure that interns gain valuable industry and functional experience, work on challenging assignments, learn about BMS and meet diverse company representatives. NJ locations include New Brunswick, Summit, Madison OR Devens, MA.

The starting hourly compensation for this assignment is within the range of $21.00 to $35.00/hr. Please note that the final individual compensation and any applicable benefits will be determined by your employer of record (and not BMS). Factors influencing this decision may include the characteristics of the assignment, such as demonstrated experience, required skill, and the geographic location of the job. Compensation details are subject to change.

Program Dates:  Monday June 1, 2026 - Friday, August 7, 2026. Applications are currently being accepted and may be selected on a rolling basis. Please apply by November 14, 2025; those selected will be notified no later than February 2026.
