The projected demand for STEM careers in the Pioneer Valley promises to be strong in fields ranging from IT and computer science to engineering and medical technology. The STEM Paid Internship Program provides high school students from Hampshire and Hampden counties with paid internships in STEM settings (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). These internships offer high school students an exceptional opportunity to gain valuable experience and connections in STEM fields and be paid for it.

Since 2018, the STEM Paid Internship Program has placed hundreds of students in world-class STEM internships in fields ranging from architecture to biomedicine, neuroscience, virology, computer science, kinesiology, engineering, and many other fields. The program is a launchpad for careers in STEM industries.

We rely on private donations, among other sources, to make this work possible. Your contribution will support direct student services and the continued creation of opportunities for all students.
