UNBC is inviting high school students to apply for a free week-long research internship this summer.
SPARK Discovery Week runs from July 22-26 at the Prince George campus. Open to students who will be entering Grades 10, 11 or 12, the week features hands-on experience in science and engineering.
It’s an opportunity for high school students to explore an area of research interest, learn more about how a university lab operates and gain experience that will help them with their high school studies while preparing them for post-secondary education. “UNBC has state-of-the-art research laboratories, and this program allows young, enthusiastic minds to work with cutting-edge technology and equipment that they might not otherwise encounter until much later in their academic careers," says School of Engineering assistant Prof. Chinchu Cherian. "This early exposure can spark a deeper interest and understanding of different research fields within science and engineering.
