Internship Role & Responsibility
Internship Role & Responsibility
The Fab Lab internship is offered to any student who has previously taken a Fab Lab, Engineering, or Design Fundamentals course OR has demonstrated a strong interest and proficiency in the areas of digital fabrication, including prototyping, electronics, coding, or the use of Fab Lab equipment (laser cutter, 3D printer, CNC milling). Interns would commit to spending at least one free block per rotation in the space where they are to perform the duties of a Fab Lab Intern. This would include monitoring, helping, and reinforcing safety to individual students, groups, and classes during planned visits or open lab time. Interns are expected to complete an independent project and document the process. Interns who complete the required time commitment and responsibilities are able to receive one semester of elective credit in science for completing the internship. Interested students should contact Mr. DiGiorgio to apply.
