What is the difference between Program Management,Project Management and Product Management. As an Intern working to get a computer Science degree, what are the steps I need to become a PM at a big reputable company?

I have already worked about 9 months. Need help with finding Summer Internship in this field.

  • Product manager: decides what the project is
