MIT Summer Youth Employment Program 

MIT Human Resources coordinates an important outreach effort with Cambridge high schools and youth programs. Through MIT’s Summer Youth Employment Program, students gain an understanding of what it is like to work in a professional environment, explore career interests and build a unique relationship with MIT. 

The relationship between MIT and the city of Cambridge 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 high school student are encouraged to learn more about the program.

The Summer Youth Employment Program runs annually for six weeks. This year the program will run from Monday June 29th – Friday August 7th 2020.
