The five councils of ASME and its Board of Governors will be served by a new group of Leadership Development Initiative interns who will start their 12-month terms in June at the Summer Annual Meeting.

Six new interns are selected each year from ASME members who are interested in learning more about the Society's operations in order to later accept responsibilities for serving in ASME's many leadership roles.
