Minority High School Apprenticeship Program (MHSAP)

MHSAP students work together on their project.

This program offers research apprenticeships to students who have completed 9th grade during the 07-08 academic year and are an under-represented minority (African ancestry, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, or Pacific Islander). 

Students should have demonstrated ability and/or potential in science-oriented studies and activities. Only high schools in Suffolk County and Inner City Outreach schools are invited to submit nominees for participation. 
 
Approximately 16 students are selected to participate in a four-week program.  The program consists of four one-week modules of instruction: physics, biology, chemistry, and environmental science.

See your school guidance counselor for applications.
