UCSD Staff Association Summer Career Experience for High School Students (CEHS) Internship Program - Applications Now Being Accepted

July 6 – August 12, 2011 (six weeks) - 10-20 hours per week

Application Deadline: May 18, 2011

The UCSD Career Experience for High School Students program, a part of the UCSD Staff Association student outreach program, has been developed to help increase awareness of career fields at UCSD. Students gain exposure to career options, hands-on experience, work readiness skills, and mentoring by skilled experts in their field of interest.

Throughout the six-week volunteer program, students are involved with an established career-based project. Students learn how to be part of a work team, joining staff meetings and contributing knowledge as part of group discussions. At the end of the program, students will develop project-focused posters, reflecting on their summer experience and highlighting their experience and future career goals. Posters will be displayed during a celebratory event, taking place at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UCSD on August 12, 2011.
