Internship Program Application

(Part 1)

Thank you for your interest in the Futures and Options Internship program. Students in our internship program participate in paid, mentored internships at a diverse group of private and nonprofit businesses in New York City.

Please read the following information about the program including what is expected of our students and what our students may expect from Futures and Options, and then complete the Internship Program Application.

Internship Placement

Futures and Options staff works to place students at sites that best match their interests and skills. Once a potential internship placement is identified, students will interview with the supervisor at the selected job site. In some cases, students will interview at several sites.

Student Responsibilities

Internship Placement: During the school year, students can work up to five days a week for a maximum of 15 hours. During the summer, students can work a total of 35 hours per week. All internships are paid. The specific hours are determined by each site supervisor and each student's schedule. Students are expected to be on time each day and work the required number of hours. The appropriate attire is dependent on each internship site and the supervisor's guidelines.

Our monthly workshops provide professional and career development and on-going support for our interns. Interns have the opportunity to share ideas and learn from each other's internship experience. Attendance is required and students are excused from their job to attend. Interns are invited to attend college guidance workshops throughout the year.

Before completing the internship application, please read the How To Apply page.

We are currently accepting applications for our Summer internship program.

If you have any questions, please contact Rebecca Dougherty at 212-601-0002 or rdougherty@futuresandoptions.org.

NYU Courant Institute Girls’ Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Summer Program

NYU GSTEM (http://cims.nyu.edu/gstem/) is a six-week program patterned after a similar program at MIT. High school girls will live at home and commute to internship sites for 4.5 weeks. They will work on a small project alongside researchers in the mathematical and physical sciences, produce a brief paper about their work, and deliver a short oral presentation to their peers. A week of preparatory lectures and workshops will precede the internship. One day in each of the other weeks will be a 'campus day', when the girls will be brought together for lectures, workshops, and field trips. Tutors will support participants. They will help them adjust to laboratory work, prepare their final talk and paper, and provide other intellectual and emotional supports.

A short calendar of events: 

July 8 -12: Preparatory lectures and workshops 

July 15 - August 13: Internships and campus days (Wednesdays) 

August 14-16: Final convocation and conclusion of program

The Sloan Foundation grant pays for all of the cost of this program except for the tuition of $2600 for each student. There are scholarships available for students who cannot afford the full tuition.

If you are a girl who is a high school junior and believe you would perform well in this rich but rigorous environment, complete the application online by June 12 at (http://cims.nyu.edu/gstem/apply/). Admissions will be on a rolling basis.

The Carnegie Mellon Summer Academy for Mathematics and Science
SAMS: The Summer Academy for Mathematics + Science
What is SAMS? The Summer Academy for Mathematics and Science is a rigorous residential summer experience for good students who have a strong interest in math and science and want to become excellent students. Students who are entering their junior or senior year and are considering careers in engineering, science and other math-based disciplines are eligible to apply. Students must be at least 16 years old to participate in this program. The program will focus on creating interest in technical disciplines and building academic and personal skills to better prepare you for the college application process.

Separate tracks will be developed for each grade level. In addition to more traditional classroom instruction, students will be involved in hands-on engineering and science projects that provide an opportunity for them to apply concepts and principles introduced in the classroom. The challenging academic environment and peer support for excellence in the classroom will build the self-confidence required to do well in high school and college. The goal of the program is to prepare students for admission to selective colleges and universities.

The Carnegie Mellon Summer Academy for Mathematics and Science - June 29 to August 9, 2013 - is designed to:

• encourage good students to become excellent students
• prepare students for standardized testing required for admission to selective colleges
• provide students with a preview of the social and academic aspects of college life
• build skills in engineering, math, science and computer science that will strengthen performance in the junior and senior years of high school, and equip students for admission to technical degree programs
• expose students to role models and careers in engineering and science
• simulate the demanding academic environment characteristic of engineering, science and computer science-related programs
• cultivate relationships between prospective students and Carnegie Mellon faculty, students and staff

The College-Bound Pipeline
The limited number of outstanding college-bound high school graduates with diverse backgrounds is often referred to as the "pipeline" problem.
Simply stated, the objective of the Summer Programs for Diversity is to expand the pipeline by enrolling high school students who will grow educationally and personally, and therefore succeed in gaining admission to selective colleges and universities. To that end, we recruit, admit and enroll good students who can become excellent students when given access to educational opportunities at Carnegie Mellon.
The goal of the program is to encourage more students to pursue engineering, science, computer science and other math-based majors and to prepare them for admission to selective colleges and universities.
