High School Student Research Intern (HS SRI) Program
The HS SRI Program is a research-based experience for senior-level high school students interested in preparing for careers in science, mathematics, engineering, and technology. The program provides academic year career development experiences and is designed for students attending schools in and/or near the Tri-Cities. HS SRI students are hourly employees.
In the HS SRI program, students attend regular classes in their school for one-half day including a work-based learning class at their high school. Students then work four hours a day, five days each week at the Laboratory with a scientist/mentor in a specified research area. Students also attend leadership development and career enhancement activities.
Students may apply for an HS SRI appointment during their junior year in high school. Students participate in an interview process with potential mentor scientists during the spring semester and final selections are determined for most positions by June 1. Limited positions may become available during the summer or early fall. A limited number of semester long positions may be available to juniors or seniors for the second semester.
Only High School Senior students from the Tri-Cities area local schools qualify for the program.
