Science and Society Internship Program
Christopher M. Stanzione, Senior Lecturer, Associate Chair of Undergraduate Studies, School of Psychology
The School of Psychology is creating a Science and Society
Internship program. The program includes three tracks:
1) International Experience, 2) Virtual Experience, and
3) Local Impact, with the goal to help support students
achieve full momentum towards graduation and their
post-graduate career, improve academic engagement, and
deepen purposeful choices for their careers in a global world.
Secondly, our program helps to serve Georgia Tech’s strategic
vision as we mobilize our partnerships for moving into action.
These internships will offer students practical experience to ensure they are prepared for career success, and offer the School an opportunity to develop educational programs that will meet emerging market needs.
We’ve also designed a mentoring experience within the Internship program between graduate and undergraduate students, which we believe will offer unique applied and academic views during the experience. We’ve designed the program in a way to meet the needs and strengthen the undergraduate experience, increase our network of companies and partners, and improve the visibility of our program.
