Not sure what you want to do when you grow up? You’re not alone! And that’s ok. A career exploration summer program could help you create the roadmap for your future. Designed specifically for high school students, these programs invite you to explore a range of professions. From medicine to law and engineering to entertainment, the possibilities are endless.
Career exploration programs provide a hands-on experience where you gain more than superficial knowledge about a profession. And they’re a fantastic way to test the waters before committing to a specific college major. Imagine yourself in a doctor’s coat during a medical simulation, pitching your business idea to a panel of investors in an entrepreneurship program, collaborating with a team to create code for a simple video game, or creating questions and interviewing an important community figure during a journalism program. These real-world experiences can help you make informed decisions about your academic path.
Whether you’re seeking a week-long intensive program or a multi-week internship — and whether you want to attend classes in person or virtually, here in the US or abroad — there’s something for everyone.
