This paid internship provides high school students with direct, hands-on research experience mentored by GTRI faculty and staff on real-world science and engineering projects.
The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) High School Summer Internship Program offers a five-week paid research experience for high school students interested in science and engineering. Interns work on real-world projects at GTRI labs, mentored by faculty and staff. The program aims to provide hands-on experience in STEM fields and create awareness of career opportunities. Students gain practical skills through activities like workplace orientation, lab tours, and training in tools such as soldering and assembly. Past projects have included building educational kiosks, developing piezoelectric tiles for energy, creating poultry processing robots, and designing facial recognition devices. The internship culminates in a final presentation where students showcase their work to GTRI leadership, mentors, and guests.
Interns work up to 24 hours a week, Monday-Friday, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., engaging in hands-on research projects, attending orientations and lab tours, and receiving training in STEM skills.
This program is ideal for Georgia high school students, at least 16 years old, who are eager to gain real-world, hands-on experience in science and engineering research.
