Foothill Science Learning Institute
STEM Micro-Internship Program
Through the Science Learning Institute (SLI), Foothill College students will have an opportunity to engage in an internship either in research or industry, under the guidance of a mentor/supervisor.
Institutions and companies include biotech startups, Stanford University, San Jose State University, and other tech companies in the Bay Area. Please see the Project Catalog for additional information.
SLI has a list of 21 projects (and a few more to come!) for the summer, and these will all be paid part-time internships in STEM disciplines ranging from biology and chem to medicine to engineering to computer science and physics.
The application deadline isn’t until Sunday, April 24th, but If you are interested in applying, please complete an Interest Form. This is just a way for SLI to stay in touch with you. This is not binding - it doesn't mean you are making a commitment. Just share that you are interested.

Honors Student Counseling Report Form |
|
All Honors Institute participants are required to meet with a counselor at least once every quarter to review or develop their educational plan, as well as to discuss any personal, career or academic concerns. Counseling appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes.
After your counseling appointment, please complete the new Counseling Report Form to record your visit and help evaluate your plan towards academic, personal, and professional successes. The Honors Institute will verify your appointment at the end of each quarter. This new reporting process replaces the documentation that counselors needed to complete.
Contact Your Honors Counselor Today!
If you have any questions regarding your schedule, the transfer application process, or any other questions about being an honors student, please be sure to visit any one of the General Counselors. For Honors specific questions, do contact any one of our Honors Counselors:
