The University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CAES) Summer Internship Programs target talented high school students who show a high aptitude in math and science related subjects. We will also consider high ability students who have not yet lived up to their potential. Selected summer interns work side-by-side with CAES researchers for six weeks, and are paid a salary for up to 30 hours of work per week.

The students earn money, learn job responsibility and, most importantly, are introduced to the work of agricultural scientists. The goal of the internship program is to encourage outstanding high school students to pursue careers in science.

Students are paired with a mentor-scientist, working in a field of the student's interest. With the mentor's help, each student develops a science project to work on over the summer. At the end of the program, students present reports on their projects and essays detailing their summer internship experience. The Young Scholars Program taught me many things in order to help to successfully adapt to college life. I was taught good work ethic and responsibility from having to work daily in an academic laboratory.

I learned how to manage my time well because I learned how to balance work time with free time. Most importantly, I was able to learn insider tips from other students who knew how to be successful in college. The most important tip of all: study much more than you did in high school, and then study some more. YSP Pre-collegiate Research Conference The Young Scholars Pre-collegiate Research Conference is held during the final three days of the Young Scholars Internship Program.

The Mentor Program paired selected students with researchers at the station in a year-long educational program. The students were chosen by the high school and the Georgia Station faculties based on the their demonstrated interest in science and/or mathematics.

The Young Scholars Program was expanded to the Athens campus in 1997. Dean Buchanan signed an agreement with the Morgan County High School and its new Agri-Science Center to develop an internship program with scientists in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. In the summer of 1999, five students completed the program.

In June 2000, the Young Scholars Program was expanded to include more students from under-represented populations. A total of twelve students participated at the Athens campus, and seven participated on the Griffin campus. In June 2001, the participation was consolidated and enriched under the Office of Diversity Relations. Eighteen students participated in Athens, and fourteen participated at the Griffin Campus. In 2003, the Young Scholars Program was expanded to the Tifton campus. The program also added national and international experiences through travel to California, Washington, D.C., Ghana, Honduras, and Costa Rica.

Since 2014, the development of the Young Scholars Program has evolved in several ways. The greatest element of change includes the YSP Pre-collegiate Research Conference. In the past, Griffin and Tifton Young Scholars would drive to Athens on the last day of the program and participate in the closing ceremony. For the last three days of the program, all students are on the Athens campus to experience student life, be exposed to peer research and learn about the boundless opportunities at UGA and CAES.
