Youth Research Opportunities

We offer several opportunities for teens to get involved in research as high school and college students through our youth advisory boards, summer research program, and undergraduate internships. Click the tiles to learn more about our youth research opportunities.

With Summer Research Scholars (SRS), you’ll conduct your own independent research project in collaboration with research mentors and fellow scholars – all online! Click to learn more or apply.

Through the Youth Advisory Board (YAB), SMAHRT is able to gather youth and young adult perspectives on proposed, ongoing and completed research projects. SMAHRT is committed to providing board members with the opportunity to build research skills and develop leadership qualities.

The TAM Youth Advisory Board (YAB) is an integral part of the Technology and Adolescent Mental Wellness program (TAM). TAM YAB members work closely with the TAM community as well as interface with the general public to provide insight into their own experiences with technology.

SMAHRT works with undergraduate students for research and communication internships. Interns work alongside SMAHRTeam members and their mentor to aid with team projects and independent research.
