Internships for Wine Lovers

By admin On June 18, 2009 Under Internships
Oregon’s $1 billion wine industry is spreading into the college classroom. The
programs at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg and Chemeketa Community College in Salem are combining with existing two and four year programs along with expansion of available internship opportunities for students. The wine industry is big business for Oregon and its economy and students interested in the industry are now able to gain relevant experience in the field prior to choosing it as a career.

Oregon’s wine industry expects to add 5,000 new jobs in the next decade. The Southern Oregon Wine Institute recently broke ground for a five-acre teaching vineyard near Umpqua Community College in Roseburg. Jobs in the industry include vineyard management, winemaking and wine marketing and many community colleges within the area are even offering online courses as well.
