In order to meet these goals, Husky is investing in an exciting internship opportunity for high school juniors and seniors through the Husky Summer Institute. The summer internship program's objective is to create workforce-ready machine technicians. The program provides an opportunity for students to learn a trade while simultaneously getting paid $13/hour, work full-time, enter an apprenticeship, earning college credits.
The program will recruit and select up to 10 participants and will run over two consecutive summers. The first year of the Summer Institute will enroll students into the established and successful CNC Machinist Fundamentals Program and will focus on providing students with a wide breadth of foundational knowledge. The second year of the Summer Institute will expand upon the foundational skills of the first and provide a greater depth of knowledge using the Advanced CNC Concepts curriculum used presently by Husky. Both summer programs will have theoretical components, hands-on projects, and job shadowing throughout Husky.
The program may lead directly to permanent employment after the first summer for graduating seniors, or after the second summer for those students returning for their senior year of high school and is dependent upon the business needs at the time.
Internship benefits include:
Full-time summer employment opportunity (8-weeks)
Intern wages - paid 40 hours per week
Up to 17 college credits
Planned, one-week unpaid summer vacation
Eight weeks of combined on-site education and internship work experience
Hands-on education and work experience
Registration into a nationally recognized State Apprenticeship Program
Job shadowing and mentoring in advanced manufacturing
Potential opportunity to continue work on a limited basis throughout the school year (based on business need)
Potential employment opportunity with Husky after high school graduation (based on business climate at the time)
Interns will be exposed to:
Computer Numeric Control (CNC) I - G&M Code Programming
Blueprint Reading with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
Machine Tool Math
Introduction to Inspection
Machining Processes I
Introduction to Apprenticeship
Fundamentals of Turning, Milling, Inspection, Testing, and Manufacturing Processes
