CHECK TIME ZONE
Feinstein Summer Research Internship Program
The Feinstein Institutes' Summer Student Internship Program<https://feinstein.northwell.edu/education/summer-student-intern-program> is a mentored program designed to provide current matriculated undergraduate college students with hands-on experience and familiarize them with career opportunities in disease-oriented research. High school students are not eligible to participate in the internship program, but can participate in the Summer Visiting Scholar Program. Up to 25 students will be accepted into the internship program. Interns are matched with research faculty according to their stated institute of interest and work on an ongoing research project in one of the expert programs.
In addition to conducting research, Feinstein interns attend a series of specially designed workshops and seminars. At the end of the 8-week internship, students present an academic poster summarizing their research to faculty and other students.
