Opportunity
When I was a student, I had the opportunity to work on a research project with a professional scientist via a summer internship. For me, it was a life changing experience. I enrolled in graduate school, obtained a PhD. and have been a researcher ever since. Twenty something years later, I still love what I do. Even if research hadn't been my thing, the internship provided me with the chance to explore potential vocational paths, gain hands on experience, learn something new, and work with a professional. High school students/K12 have almost no chance for a similar experience despite being at a critical stage in their intellectual development. Therefore, we offer all students regardless of institution or academic achievement, the opportunity to intern with us.
