Regal Rexnord posted its whole summer 2027 intern class in September 2026: 14 requisitions on its student job board, every one carrying the same program dates, 2 June to 13 August 2027. All 14 were still open on 3 October 2026, with no closing date published. You apply during fall 2026, you intern in summer 2027.

The Milwaukee-based maker of electric motors, power transmission components and motion-control systems reports about $5.9 billion in 2025 sales and 30,000 associates on its investor overview. Its internship reaches well beyond engineering, with separate requisitions for operations, supply chain, IT, accounting and finance, HR, EHS, sales, marketing, digital marketing, customer care and commercial excellence.

What Is a Regal Rexnord Internship?

A Regal Rexnord internship is a paid, roughly 11-week summer role at a US industrial manufacturer of motors, power transmission and motion-control products, running 2 June to 13 August 2027 in a specific function such as engineering, operations, supply chain or finance. The Engineering Summer Intern requisition describes a project-based internship that ends with interns presenting their results to leadership.

The engineering requisition spans applications, mechanical, electrical, design, quality, manufacturing, software and continuous improvement engineering across 13 US sites. The Operations Internship is built as a feeder: Regal Rexnord says it's "designed to develop future participants for our Early Career Rotational Program." The students page also lists MBA internships, the rotational program for new graduates and a six-month SEALs sales and engineering program.

When Do Regal Rexnord Internship Applications Open for 2027–2028?

Regal Rexnord posted all of its summer 2027 internships within about three weeks: Engineering on 2 September 2026, the three Operations requisitions on 10 September, Sales on 15 September, Commercial Excellence on 25 September and the other business-function roles from 22 September, per the posting dates on its Workday board. From a September posting to the 2 June 2027 start is a lead time of about 9 months.

We probed the board on 3 October 2026 and every one of the 14 summer requisitions was still live, along with eight co-ops and a part-time fall communications role. We couldn't find dated postings from the summer 2026 cycle, so the expected summer 2028 window rests on this one observed wave.

Now · October 2026YOU ARE HERE

Applications for summer 2027 are open right now across all 14 tracks, and the spring 2027 and January 2027 co-ops are open too. Apply to the requisition for your function and check its GPA, graduation-date and location lines first.

Spring co-ops begin in Tipp City, Ohio and Fort Wayne, Indiana, and the Charlotte engineering co-op starts as a 3 to 4 month term.

Summer 2027

The internship runs 2 June to 13 August 2027, about 11 weeks, and each track ends with interns presenting their project to leadership.

Summer 2028 internships are expected to post, if Regal Rexnord repeats this year's September wave.

How to read this page: our dates come from tracking previous recruiting cycles and daily posting data. Treat them as informed estimates based on historical patterns, not confirmed dates. The company's official careers page is always the most current source. If a role is posted there, go by that, even if this page suggests the window hasn't opened yet.

Why You Must Apply the Week Applications Open

Regal Rexnord gives no deadline, which makes this a rolling process: none of the 23 US intern and co-op requisitions we read on 3 October 2026 states a closing date, and Workday shows no end date.

That cuts both ways. There's no date to miss, but there's also no guarantee a role is still open in January, because a requisition can be filled and taken down at any point. With the whole summer class posted at once and no second wave visible, the full set of choices exists only now.

The Engineering requisition is one application covering 13 sites, so applying early also gives the hiring teams the longest runway to match you to a location.

Which Regal Rexnord Internship Programs Should You Target?

Each function has its own requisition. These are the main tracks, with the published pay where Regal Rexnord lists it.

All roles are on the Student & Early Career board. The same Workday tenant also lists roles in the Philippines, Mexico and Slovakia, so check the location before you apply.

What Are the Eligibility Requirements?

Requirements are set requisition by requisition. Across the US internships:

• Work authorization: every summer requisition says candidates must be eligible to work in the US without company sponsorship.

• GPA: a 3.0 minimum on the Engineering, IT, HR, EHS and Accounting & Finance requisitions.

• Graduation window: Engineering and IT want graduation in Winter 2027 or later; HR and EHS between Fall 2027 and Spring 2030; Operations wants rising seniors expected to graduate within the next year.

• Coursework: Supply Chain asks for at least two years of full-time study; Accounting & Finance asks for at least two accounting or finance classes before the start date.

• Relocation: the Operations internship may require relocation, and candidates must be open to relocating for the rotational program after graduation.

Is the 3.0 GPA a Hard Cutoff?

On the five requisitions that state it, yes on paper: the Engineering requisition reads "Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale." The Operations, Supply Chain, Sales, Marketing and Customer Care requisitions don't list a GPA at all. If your GPA sits just below 3.0, those tracks are the realistic place to apply.

What Skills Does Regal Rexnord Look For, and How Do You Build Them?

Regal Rexnord's requisitions lean on general business skills more than on specialist tools. Communication, Microsoft Excel, data analysis and problem solving appear on most of them, and many ask you to present findings to leaders. Technical asks are track-specific: Lean and Six Sigma for continuous improvement and operations, CAD for design engineering, and circuit design and validation testing for electrical engineering.

What Is the Regal Rexnord Application and Interview Process Like?

Regal Rexnord doesn't publish its intern interview process. What the requisitions and careers site do show:

1. Apply on Workday. Pick the requisition for your function on the Student & Early Career board. The Engineering requisition covers 13 sites in one application; Operations has a separate requisition for each of its three sites.

2. Check the eligibility lines. GPA, graduation window, coursework and sponsorship requirements differ by requisition, and the sponsorship rule applies to all of them.

3. Interviews. We found no official description and no first-hand US intern interview reports, so expect a standard screen and interviews with the hiring team.

4. Offer and start. Offer timing isn't published. The summer program starts on 2 June 2027.

What the Community Says

Reddit has very little on Regal Rexnord's US internship, so these cards mix two Reddit comments with Indeed employee reviews. None is intern-specific.

Asked about good tech employers in Milwaukee, a local worker described Regal Rexnord as somewhat messy internally, but said the people want the right things and office politics don't dominate.

How Do You Stand Out for a Regal Rexnord Internship?

Three moves for this cycle.

First, apply in October while every track is open. There's no deadline, but the whole summer class is already posted, so the full choice of sites and functions won't last.

Second, prepare to present. Every summer track ends with a project presentation to leadership, and many requisitions list presenting findings as a core duty. A class or Externship project you can present clearly is direct evidence.

Third, show the business side of engineering. The requisitions emphasize Excel, data analysis and working across functions, even for engineers, so a resume that shows you've pulled data to back a decision stands out.

On full-time: the Operations requisitions say top-performing interns may be considered for the two-year Early Career Operations Rotational Program, but Regal Rexnord doesn't publish a conversion rate.

FAQ

Can I still apply for a summer 2026 Regal Rexnord internship?

No. The summer 2026 program has run and its postings are gone from Regal Rexnord's board. What's open now is summer 2027: 14 internship requisitions for 2 June to 13 August 2027, plus spring and January 2027 co-ops. None states a closing date, so apply while every track is still live.

When do Regal Rexnord summer 2027 internship applications open?

They're open now. Regal Rexnord posted all 14 summer 2027 requisitions in September 2026, and all were live on 3 October. No closing date is published, so roles close as they fill. Summer 2028 roles are expected around September 2027 if the company repeats this pattern.

How much do Regal Rexnord interns make?

Seven summer requisitions publish a range: Engineering $21.50 to $28 an hour, IT $21.50 to $30, Accounting and Finance $21.50 to $27, Supply Chain, HR and Digital Marketing $19 to $25, and EHS $18 to $24. Operations, Sales, Marketing, Customer Care and Commercial Excellence don't list pay.

Does Regal Rexnord sponsor visas for interns?

No. Every US summer internship requisition says candidates must be eligible to work in the United States without requiring company sponsorship to obtain or keep work authorization. International students who would need sponsorship can't be considered for these roles, so check your status before applying.

Is there a GPA requirement for Regal Rexnord internships?

On some tracks. The Engineering, IT, HR, EHS and Accounting and Finance requisitions require a 3.0 minimum cumulative GPA. Operations, Supply Chain, Sales, Marketing and Customer Care don't list one. Read the qualifications on your specific requisition, since graduation-date windows also differ.

Where are Regal Rexnord internships located?

Most business internships are at the Milwaukee headquarters on a hybrid schedule of at least three office days a week. Engineering spans 13 US sites, from Arlington, Texas to East Aurora, New York. Operations interns work in McAllen, Texas, Lincoln, Missouri or Plainfield, Indiana, and co-ops are in Ohio, Indiana, North Carolina and Kentucky.

Do Regal Rexnord interns get full-time offers?

Some do, though no rate is published. The Operations requisitions say top-performing interns may be considered for the two-year Early Career Operations Rotational Program after graduation, with rotations across manufacturing, distribution and planning. Regal Rexnord also hires new graduates into rotational programs directly.

Does Regal Rexnord offer co-ops?

Yes. Spring 2027 co-ops are posted in Tipp City, Ohio and Fort Wayne, Indiana, a 3 to 4 month engineering co-op starts in January 2027 in Charlotte, North Carolina, and manufacturing and supply chain co-ops are open in Florence, Kentucky. For co-op students, these start months sooner than the summer program.

Regal Rexnord's summer 2027 internships are all open now, with no deadline to wait for. Apply to the track that fits your major, and if you want a finished project to present, a remote Externship is one way to build it.
