Milstein Scholars have the option to attend a unique summer program at Cornell Tech on Roosevelt Island the summer between their first-year and sophomore year.
The Milstein Summer Program is designed to be an immersive, collaborative learning experience, bridging the technological & humanistic understandings of our world through classes, hands-on workshops, and real-world engagements in New York City. Over the course of 8-weeks, students develop a situated appreciation for technological innovation, as well as the human context in which it unfolds.
As a student in the Milstein Program, you understand that you’ll need a diverse set of skills to tackle today’s most challenging issues. You might love studying philosophy, capital markets or Chinese, but you’re also fascinated with technology and data and can see the intersections between all of your interests.
Rolling deadline: Externship funding for Juniors & Seniors.
During the course of their four years in the Program, Milstein Program Scholars learn how to collaborate, design, scope and iterate team projects rooted in the theme of innovation and change. In the First-year Project, students are introduced to small team projects they choose or propose. The Milstein Program experience culminates in the year-long Junior Project.
