Launched in 2020, BotsIQ’s Post-Secondary Summer Internship Program provides youth ages 18-22 years old with a paid work experience at local manufacturing companies.
The BotsIQ Post-Secondary Internship Program has three goals: to enhance post-secondary students’ knowledge of manufacturing career opportunities and expand their professional network; to increase youth confidence in technical and career readiness skills; and to prepare post-secondary students to successfully earn an industry recognized credential.
Launched in 2019, BotsIQ’s Close the Loop supports high school students interested in a career in advanced manufacturing or robotics.
Through the program, youth have access to valuable career exploration opportunities such as: facility tours, job shadowing experiences, internships, scholarships, and more.
According to the US Census, the American workforce is about 47% women, but only 30% work in manufacturing. It is crucial to provide girls with a safe, engaging, and impactful opportunity to explore manufacturing careers.
In 2022, BotsIQ hosted its first high school Girls Exploring Engineering (GEE) Day, featuring hands-on activities and career conversations with industry professionals. Since then, BotsIQ has continued to offer GEE Day while expanding the initiative to reach girls from elementary through high school. Additional opportunities now include Girls Exploring Tech Day and the Girls Exploring Manufacturing Summer Camp.
