The Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology Issue One Junior Fellowship Experience The Junior Fellowship Experience (JFE) is a one semester opportunity for the student to gain an in-depth understanding about a STEM field of their interest, perform appropriate research or participate in a task/ project development, investigate professional sources of information within the community, and present highlights of the experience. Student Spotlights: "It's just not what most high- school students get to do" "When I was 16 years old I was working for a local grocery store. It did not help prepare me for what a possible career would be. The JFE program is a beneficial opportunity for these students to expose themselves to real world situations and opportunities that are not afforded to most juniors in high school." Teacher Perspective: Introducing Mr. Bill McAuliffe Faculty Advisor "I think that these internships are such personal experiences. In terms of impressive, it doesn't matter what applies to outsiders; this program is designed to be where you get out of it what you put into it."
