Supervisor testimonials
"Not only did they provide me with a phenomenal student intern, but I also learned important leadership and managerial skills."
— Christine Lydon, Medical Oncology
"Mentoring gave me the opportunity to facilitate a protégé's personal and professional growth by sharing the knowledge I learned through years of experience. While the primary intent of my mentoring role was to challenge the student to think in new and
different ways, the student was not the only one who gained experience from this arrangement."
— Mayra Mollinedo, Pediatric Oncology
"Our whole department was incredibly impressed with the maturity, intelligence, and strong work ethic our high school interns possessed. On the last day of the program, we were all commenting how wonderful it was to have been part of their early professional
work experience."
— Maria McCallion, Telecommunications
Student testimonials
"My supervisor taught me skills that'll benefit me greatly in my future employment. I gained skills that I didn't have before or struggled with, such as time management, multitasking, handling different tasks, using spreadsheets, and many other skills.
This summer internship experience at Dana-Farber has made me a better person, academically and professionally."
— Sachie
"What I liked the most about my summer internship was I was able to get more exposure to how it feels to actually work in a hospital. I was able to see how the employees interacted with each other, and the background research that goes into helping people
with cancer. Another thing I liked was all the college tours we had and the college panel. It really helped me feel more prepared for college."
— Joanne
"For me the best part of being part of this internship is having the opportunity of meeting so many people. Networking with various co-workers and getting to know their stories made everything more memorable. Growing personal connections with people here
allowed this experience to be wonderful."
— Darbie
