Next Gen High School Internship Program

Because there is a clear lack of underrepresented minorities (URM) at all stages of academic learning for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, Emory University is proposing to address this gap by initiating a paid summer internship program for high school students in the metropolitan Atlanta area beginning in the summer of 2022. We believe that an earlier exposure to the diverse and exciting career possibilities that are available in the STEM field will begin to address this difference in representation.
