Summer Internship for Tech Excellence (SITE)

Codepath’s SITE is a full-time paid summer internship for rising college juniors where students will learn with support from CodePath instructors and interact with engineers from partner companies. This 10-week immersive program will give students a deep understanding of web development, relevant technical work experience, and an opportunity to connect with technology leaders. Students will be expected to work remotely during the program hours 8 am to 4 pm Pacific Time from June 6 to August 12, 2022. Students will participate in team meetings such as daily stand-ups, workshops and receive mentorship from software engineering professionals that currently work at SITE's partner companies.

First, you will need to fill out a questionnaire about your programming experience, your career goals and you as a person. You will also need to submit a short essay. Applicants are required to have a free GitHub account to apply. Successful applicants will need to complete the pre-work assignment before being admitted to the program. The application process will be competitive.

We are looking for students who will complete their sophomore year in Spring 2022 and are enrolled in a computer-related course of study at a US college or university. Students should also have completed an introductory course in computer science and have familiarity with functions, conditionals, loops, variables, primitive data types, and arrays.

Students who successfully complete this program may be offered another internship opportunity during the summer of their junior year. 

The program hours are 8 am to 4 pm Pacific Time from June 6 - August 12, 2022. Students are expected to attend all sessions as this is a paid work and learning experience.
