Are you a strong Wolfram Language coder? Are you excited by STEM, Computational Thinking, and finding amazing new ways to use computers to solve problems? Are you interested in working with talented high-school students?

The Wolfram High School Summer Research Program is a great opportunity to mentor students through exciting projects while making their summer a fun and rewarding experience.

During the 2.5-week program, students deep dive into interesting problems ranging from Computational Crochet to Exploring Quantum Cellular Automata, from using machine learning to Generate Super Mario Bros. levels to using natural language processing to do Sentiment Analysis of The Office Subreddit, from using multiway sandpile models with applications to LCFTs, to simulating the flocking behavior of boids. They learn to code in Wolfram Language and push the boundaries of their computational thinking skills, while we support them in a fun and engaging environment.

We’re looking for people with strong Wolfram Language skills and subject knowledge in any STEM or STEM-adjacent area, including math, physics, chemistry, biology, computer science, data science, computational social sciences, digital humanities, and machine learning.

We usually welcome advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, industry professionals, teachers, professors, and retirees to the team. We are based at Bentley University outside of Boston and the program runs from June 25 to July 12. All food and accommodation is covered, and mentors receive a stipend to help cover travel and costs.

If you’re interested in mentoring (or you know someone who might be), please reach out to roryf@wolfram.com or submit an application. We encourage mentors to apply before January 1.
