The Center for Educational Outreach is excited to announce that counselor applications are now open for the 2026 season of Summer Youth Programs (SYP).

Each summer, SYP welcomes more than a thousand middle and high school students to campus for an unforgettable experience filled with hands-on learning, discovery and adventure. We’re looking for college students from Michigan Tech and beyond who are excited to help create a fun, welcoming, and meaningful environment for the thinkers, doers and problem-solvers of tomorrow.

A wide range of counselor and program support positions are available, including roles focused on youth engagement, residence life, evening programming, transportation and daily operations. Student staff members begin paid training in early June, and programs will run through July 18.

If you know a college student seeking an impactful summer opportunity who enjoys working with youth and wants to be part of a positive, energetic campus community this summer, please encourage them to view our website to learn more and apply through our hiring portal.
