Our program this summer will take advantage of the rich opportunity for learning that shelter-in-place and summer break provides, and will be delivered virtually via online digital media and interaction platforms from Stanford to ensure the safety of our students and faculty during the COVID-19 pandemic. Together, along with our Stanford faculty, guest speakers and your peer students, we will engage in an exciting summer internship program that is:
