ASE:  An Opportunity to Mentor the Next Generation

Each summer, over 120 of the best and brightest high school students from throughout Oregon and SW Washington work with scientists and engineers in their workplace through the ASE Program.

Scientists and engineers mentor students through ASE for a variety of reasons:

• They had a mentor themselves and know, first hand, the positive impact mentors can have on young people.
• They appreciate the energy that bright, motivated high school students can bring to the workplace.
• Their companies/agencies/organizations want to give back to the community by supporting its young people.
• All of the above!

For More Information

Please check out the Mentor "Overview" page and our "Question and Answer" book for more details about the ASE Program. In addition, our "Example Position Descriptions" web page has examples of the types of projects ASE interns have worked on in the past.
