June 2018 Newsletter

June is all about INTERNSHIPS, so for this issue, we focus on Internships!

Internships provide scholars with HANDS-ON opportunities and are pathways to employment post-graduation. STEM Advantage has a 100% graduation and hire rate for our scholars.

This year, we saw a record number of STEM Advantage Scholars participate in full-time, Summer internships. We want to highlight a few of them here:
