STEM Coding Lab is Pittsburgh's only nonprofit exclusively devoted to providing computer science education to our region's under-resourced youth. We operate primarily as an afterschool program, although we partner with school districts to provide instruction during the school day as well.
Through engaging, hands-on activities, STEM Coding Lab seeks to bring computer science education to elementary and middle school students throughout the region, including in Pittsburgh Public Schools, our local charter schools, community centers, and wherever else there are opportunities to inspire young minds with computer science knowledge.
STEM Coding Lab seeks interns for two positions: Communications & Marketing and K-8 Computer Science Teaching Assistant.
Marketing & Communications Interns objectives include elevating awareness locally of STEM Coding Lab’s work, helping STEM Coding Lab refine its social media strategy, and supporting fundraising and development efforts throughout the Pittsburgh region.
K-8 Teaching Assistant Program Interns objectives include engaging young children with basic computer science concepts and activities. Interns do not need to have computer science expertise, but rather, a commitment to serving youth, as well as an ability to engage K-8 classrooms in a kind, caring manner.
Interns, if successful, also have an opportunity to pursue part-time or full-time employment with STEM Coding Lab.
