Summer Metcalf Sprint Matching Program
Gain experience and grow your network with the Metcalf Matching Sprint program! Metcalf Sprints are co-op, project-based experiences for UChicago students facilitated by employer partners. During the project, teams of undergraduates take a deep dive into their field of interest and build relevant experience. These clinics are a wonderful way to build your research, analysis, and strategic thinking skills. After working on a two-week project, teams will have the opportunity to give a presentation on their results. Students will receive access to coaches, industry experts, and the opportunity to network with successful alumni.
Metcalf Sprint projects will include opportunities in consulting, finance, and STEM. Potential companies include organizations such as: Cornerstone, P33, and IBM Quantum.
