Students in Rhode Island connect with the state's leading companies, marking the initial stride towards their professional careers.
Brown University is deeply committed to engaging with the Providence community, and one of the ways this is demonstrated is through the PrepareRI internship program. This initiative provides meaningful, hands-on experiences for local high school students, immersing them in various departments across the university.
Faculty, staff, and students across Brown University host dozens of high school interns each year, with fields ranging from pathology and chemistry to earth science. But the program isn't limited to academic departments. Brown University Athletics, in particular, plays a significant role in providing practical experiences for Providence-area students during the summer months.
The Brown University Athletics department is the driving force behind these student loans. They conduct outreach initiatives and youth programs like the Meet the Bears clinic for local kids. The internship program is a testament to the department's dedication to being a good community partner.
Interns working with Brown Athletics are embedded in the daily operations of various departments. They shadow strength and conditioning coaches, assist with marketing campaigns, conduct research, and help set up for camps, clinics, and practices. Through this immersive experience, interns are gaining a real-world look at the many roles within college athletics.
The internships are not just limited to the athletics department. PrepareRI interns can also be found at Brown's Center for Animal Resources and Education (CARE), where they work as animal care technician assistants. Their daily tasks include mopping floors, emptying trash, and stocking personal protective equipment.
This internship program is a powerful example of Brown University's long-standing commitment to providing meaningful learning opportunities for students in Providence and across Rhode Island. By offering these experiences, Brown is not only contributing to the education of local youth but also fostering a strong connection between the university and the community it serves.
