Julian Schroeder and his laboratory have developed an internship program with the public Preuss School. We train Preuss School students in research internships in the lab and provide mentoring.
The Preuss School is a public charter middle and high school for low income and disadvantaged motivated students from throughout San Diego County, who strive to become the first in their families to earn a 4-year college degree. Julian also mentors students with respect to University applications and preparation and all and any career questions and plans.
The Preuss School was ranked Best High School in San Diego County in 2022 by U.S. News & World Report, the Preuss School has been recognized by Newsweek as the top transformative high school in the nation three years in a row, the "Top Change-Making School" by The Daily Beast and the Washington Post placed Preuss among America's 25 Most Challenging High Schools.
