HMS MEDscience Senior Intern

Summer Internship Application

Applications Close January 31, 2024

Dear Applicant,

We are delighted to hear of your interest in interning at MEDscience this summer! We rely heavily upon our wonderful interns in order to provide a richly engaging program for our high school students. If you have not done so already, please explore our WEBSITE to learn more about our mission as well as our semester and summer programs.

Here is a brief description of the Lead Intern position. We hope this will help you determine if the opportunity will be a good fit:

The optimal candidate is either a student currently enrolled in an undergraduate program or a working professional with a demonstrated interest in the healthcare field or education and strongly values diversity, equity, and inclusion. The candidate should be organized, enthusiastic, and willing to learn. The intern must be an alumni of the MEDscience or teleMED program. Our intern’s primary role is to be part mentor for the students and part production assistant for the staff. On the mentorship side, we count on our interns to mingle with and encourage students throughout the day, keeping an eye out for students who may be less comfortable socializing with new people. We expect our senior interns to act as a role model and resource for our students. On the production side, our staff will need your assistance in managing team building activities and encouraging team camaraderie. The intern needs to be available for 4 or 5 consecutive weeks from 8:15am to 4:00pm each day. This is a volunteer position, but applicants are encouraged to receive funding through scholarship or through their university.  The internship will take place at our simulation lab located in Harvard Medical School’s Armenise building.
