HIRES INTERNSHIP (PAID)
WHO: Highschool Students
WHAT: Every summer, New York City high school students from underrepresented backgrounds- including students of color, from low income backgrounds, and women – who are majoring in Science Technology Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), will be given the chance to be immersed in an advanced STEM research opportunity called the High School Initiative in Remote Sensing of Earth Systems (HIRES) Program.
The seven-week long internship program is hosted annually by the CUNY Remote Earth Systems (CREST) Institute, and is funded by a grant from the Pinkerton Foundation. During the HIRES internship, participants learn about the fields of science – particularly engineering, as potential careers, and they learn about how the CREST college fellowship can help to catapult them into a future STEM career. Students can also look forward to field trips and museum visits, to conducting their own presentations, and to enrichment activities.
