Teen Science Scholar Internships

Description

This is a complete hands-on summer internships with Science Division staff at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Teen interns strengthen their investigative and communication skills, develop a peer network of students from across the state of Colorado, and share their work and experiences during a Showcase event at the end of the summer.

In the past years, teens have interned in departments such as Anthropology, Conservation, Earth Sciences, and Zoology. The internships provide a structured learning opportunity under the direct supervisor of DMNS staff members who serve as mentors.

Eligibility

  • Applicants must be entering their junior or senior year of high school in the fall of 2024.
  • Be interested in learning more about a science-related career and be available for the duration of the internship (early June through the end of July).
  • Teens from groups that have been historically marginalized from the sciences and individuals who will be the first generation in their family to complete a four-year college degree are strongly encouraged to apply.
