The Jones Scholars Internship Program

Thanks to the generous support of the Eugenie and Joseph Jones Family Foundation, the Cowen Institute pairs graduate students from Tulane University (named “Jones Scholars”) with public high schools in New Orleans to support projects focused on improving college readiness, decreasing dropout rates, and easing the transition from high school to college. In return for the work completed by a Jones Scholar over the course of a semester, the Cowen Institute provides the intern with a competitive financial stipend of $6,000.  Jones Scholars are expected to work a minimum of 20 hours per week on assigned projects.  For a list of Fall 2009 projects, click here. For a list of Spring 2010 projects, click here.
