This is a paid internship program, offering a stipend through the Army Educational Outreach Program (AEOP), providing students with a unique opportunity to conduct real-world research alongside university faculty.
The AEOP High School Internship STEM Research Program at UNC Charlotte offers rising high school juniors and seniors an intensive, in-person summer research experience. Students are paired with a faculty mentor to engage in hands-on university lab research across various STEM fields, including engineering, computer science, and environmental sciences. Participants design experiments, collect and analyze data, and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The program culminates in students presenting their research findings, often at the Junior Science & Humanities Symposium, enhancing their presentation and communication abilities. This experience provides valuable exposure to real-world research, potential STEM careers, and mentorship from professional scientists and engineers, with a focus on encouraging students from underrepresented populations in STEM.
Students are expected to be on campus daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., engaging in hands-on university lab research with their faculty mentor.
This program is ideal for high school rising juniors and seniors who are permanent U.S. residents, have a strong interest in STEM, and are looking for an intensive, hands-on research experience with faculty mentorship.
