In 2018, Haystack launches a paid, high school internship program for local teens to gain job training design experience working in the Fab Lab. Haystack's summer internship program provides high school students with the opportunity to work with the Fab Lab team, receive a crash-course in digital fabrication, and provide technical support for projects while gaining job training and exposure to participants and faculty from the US and abroad. To date, Haystack has hired over 10 local high school students and trained them with the technical skills necessary to design and prototype in digital fabrication studio.
Our summer (paid) internship program is an exciting opportunity for high school students to work directly with our Fab Lab team and learn new skills. Interns will receive a crash-course in digital fabrication, learning some of the most important and common skills utilized in the space. After a training period, interns work directly with workshop participants, providing technical support for a variety of projects. Job training and exposure to participants and faculty from the US and abroad make for a rich and impactful experience.
