Spark! Announces Residency Program for Summer 2017
BU Spark! is accepting applications for in-residence interns for Summer 2017.
BU Spark! is an exciting initiative that creates a supportive community for student-centered entrepreneurship in computing as well as a suite of programs, activities, resources, and networks to help and empower students to pursue next-stage development of their ideas, concepts, and creations for innovative computing and data-driven technology. The program is looking for in-residence interns for the 2017 summer season.
The Spark! In Residence program is dedicated to catalyzing Boston University student innovators who are passionate about solving a problem (or creating an opportunity) and committed to building a technological solution.
The program aims to provide students a collaborative co-working space in which they can build out their solution during the summer term. The program, which kicks of this summer, will be housed at the Hariri Institute for Computing & Computational Science and Engineering and will run from June 5th to August 10th. Students qualifying for the Spark! in Residence program will be provided access to a $5,000 stipend toward a summer internship, unlocking the time, structure, and support they need to take their technology project to the next level. The summer experience is designed to foster interaction and peer feedback among the teams and help students access the full set of entrepreneurship resources available across Boston University.
