ALCOSAN (Allegheny County Sanitary Authority)

Alcosan’s Scholastic Outreach Division builds the next generation of environmental leaders by inspiring students to explore STEM and water‑industry careers. Through dynamic classroom programs, hands‑on learning, and strong community partnerships, we connect young people to real-world science and the essential work of protecting our region’s waterways.

A cornerstone of our efforts is the Alcosan Internship Program, which offers high school and college students paid, meaningful experience across engineering, environmental science, communications, operations, and more. Interns gain professional skills, mentorship, and exposure to career pathways while contributing to projects that support Alcosan’s mission. By investing in local talent, the program strengthens our workforce pipeline and demonstrates our commitment to the communities we serve.
