The relationship between MIT and the Cambridge public high schools is an important one and, as a result, HR is looking to strengthen and expand this relationship by offering summer employment opportunities. Different departments across the Institute identify supportive supervisors who will engage with the students in this educational employment experience, and who will provide a work experience and learning opportunity for students.
Supervisors who have an interest in mentoring and developing a relationship with a Cambridge public high school student are encouraged to learn more about the program.
The Summer Youth Employment Program runs annually for six weeks from early-July to mid-August. This year the program will run from Monday July 8th through Friday August 16th, 2019.
