The 11th Grade High School Science Research Internship Program is a partnership between the Madison Metropolitan School District (MMSD) and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. During the summer, MMSD students connect with a research group at UW-Madison for an authentic science research experience as an intern. Each intern works as a volunteer over the course of the summer under the guidance of a professor, degree candidate, postdoctoral candidate or research associate. Following the summer research internship experience, interns design a scientific poster which allows the interns to celebrate the completion of their internship as they gain experience in communicating scientific findings to an audience of university faculty and students, teachers, friends and family. Students earn college credit from UW and high school credit from MMSD for completing the requirements of the program.
