The Calendar Calculator is only useful in determining whether or not you can possibly participate in the program. All schedules are ultimately at the discretion of your ASE mentor. Some mentors have family vacations planned during the summer or need students in the lab during specific times during the summer for research. Most internship schedules allow for 2 weeks of vacation during the summer. Internships CANNOT start before the end of the school year. Most start dates will be either June 14th or June 21st. Internships MUST be completed by August 20th. Students must complete 296 internship hours. ASE also prefers that students save at least 2 extra make-up days for possible illness at the end of the summer.
The following dates are not available for internship hours:
- July 5th - Most organizations are closed on this day (observing the Fourth of July)
- July 15th - Interns are required to attend the Midsummer Conference on this day
- August 12th - Interns are required to attend Symposium on this day
