Description
The JPL Summer Internship Program (JPLSIP) provides funding for undergraduate and graduate students to participate in summer internships at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Caltech’s Student-Faculty Programs office provides administrative support, while students apply directly through JPL’s internship application resources. JPL’s Academic Engagement Office manages internship opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
The program also offers a connection to Caltech’s campus research community. Once admitted, students may apply to live on the Caltech campus and join a large community of undergraduate researchers. This residential option requires a separate application from the internship itself.
