Stanford Earth Young Investigators8/28/2020 Program Name: Stanford Earth Young Investigators Type: Student Grade: Students who completed at least one year in high school Program Overview: At the School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences, high school students spend the summer working in research laboratories. Students are supervised directly by graduate students, post docs and lab managers. This program enables graduate students to serve as supervisors, prepares high school students for college and helps strengthen the connections between Stanford and local high schools. Since 2004, over 250 high school students have worked in our research labs and learned about the process of science first hand. We offer several different options, with different areas of focus and time commitments. Once a week we have talks, lab tours, and field trips as a group. This is a time that interns get to learn about the broad field of Earth and environmental sciences and get to know one another. These activities take place on the same day each week. Young Investigators is not a camp and organized social activities are limited. Estimated Program Date: Program runs during summer Eligibility and Requirements: - This internship is for students who have completed at least one year of high school. - Most students who are accepted have completed 2 or 3 years of high school. - You must live and attend school in the San Francisco Bay Area, within 25 miles of campus or in San Francisco. No exceptions. This opportunity is for students of all backgrounds. - There is no age limit (except for laboratory positions). Interns must be mature and confident to talk to professors. (Please do not ask if you can be an exception! the answer is NO.) Target Group: Students interested in earth science and committed to internship activities. Application Detail: The high school internship program is an annual program. The application is released in late January and is due March. You will find the application on this page at that time. Late applications are not considered; there are always more qualified students than placements. Find blank application HERE Website: Click here to visit the official website
