High School Summer Internships 2007/2008

[Mintie]

<p>I found a website that lists internships available for high school students all across the US, if any of you are interested. Even though this is for summer of 07/08, many of these programs will be open for the next couple of years. If anything, I hope this can be a good starting point for those of you looking for something interesting to do over the upcoming summers.</p>

[smoothsilkmusic]

<p>Ah, I’ve seen the first list but not the second. Thanks, you’re awesome.</p>

[karaokemachine]

<p>Thank you for posting this! I found this through Google 'cause I’m looking for a summer internship in medicine.
And the list is updated - jackpot :)</p>

[intparent]

<p>I didn’t notice it on these lists, but the Breakthrough Collaborative also hires a few high school students in the summer (and during the school year) in our city. Not sure it that is true in all locations, though. So if you want to be a teacher, check it out. D1 did it for 3 years and loved it!</p>
