I just finished my freshman year and I had lined up a two-week internship with a NASA program...
My question is are we expected to intern for our SF this summer ? or do we intern for them the summer after the first year of funding ?

I also received the scholarship my freshman year (am now in Phase 3) and didn't have to do an internship until after my sophomore year, so you should be good to go for this summer.

Do they ever offer employment after the completion of phase 2?

I believe most SF's hire you full time and you just have the option to leave after two years. Though I've heard/seen some who seem to lack funding and can only offer a temporary position. The government, however, is pretty good at planning this out. They want us to continue working for them it's like private companies leadership development programs.
