Autumn 2025

Internship Opportunity: R&D Intern with Hexion, Inc.

by at

ASC Career Success has recently been connected with Hexion, a global leader in adhesives and responsible chemistry. They have recently announced the relocation of their Global R&D headquarters to Dublin, OH, and as such, they are very eager to connect with students and recent alumni of Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Ohio State regarding internship and career opportunities.

They are currently seeking candidates for a Research & Development (R&D) Internship based in Springfield, Oregon, with a flexible start date. The team is hoping to fill the role as soon as possible; however, they also understand that most candidates will only be available after the current fall semester. When Hexion’s new Dublin campus opens in summer 2026, it is expected that the intern will relocate back to Columbus.

The opportunity is open to current students and recent alumni in Chemistry or related fields. Because they know that timing and relocation may make it challenging to find a candidate, the hiring team is very flexible regarding the intern’s technical background. At this stage, the most important qualities are problem-solving ability and teamwork.
