<p>I was thinking about applying to University of Alabama's MINT Internship Program for high schoolers. However, their website didnt provide as much info as i would have liked. Does anyone know whether it is a residential camp, whether you can research whatever you want, and how hard/easy it is to get accepted for the program?</p>
<p>Hi jhk888. You can read all about the summer internship opportunity for high school students though The Center for Materials and Information Technology (MINT) at [High</a> School Internship Program | MINT Center - The University of Alabama](<a href=“http://mint.ua.edu/education/high-school-internship-program/]High”>http://mint.ua.edu/education/high-school-internship-program/). That link provides information on how to apply, what the internship involves, and who to contact for further questions about the program.</p>
<p>Thank you for the reply. However, i have already been through the website. The website did not explicitely state whether the program was residential and how participants would be able to choose their topic of research. I was wondering if anyone here had previously attended the internship and would be able to share their experience.</p>
