Describe a situation when you helped build or sustain a collaborative, positive, supportive community. What strategies or lessons did you use to collaborate, lead, or solve problems? The situation does not have to be related to science, research, or education. If you haven't had this experience, explain what you believe makes a positive and supportive community and how you would contribute to one in the future, including any strategies you'd use to collaborate, lead, and problem-solve. 2. How could your approach to community and leadership enhance the experience for your fellow interns and strengthen the SIParCS program as a whole? 3. How does participating in SIParCS complement your current interests and future career goals? Mentorship: SIParCS interns work with their mentors on a specified project and are responsible for communicating with their mentoring team, organizing meetings, asking for help, etc. 4. Describe an experience where you took initiative, guided and supported peers, and/or collaborated to achieve goals. Please include how you will apply these skills to work with your mentoring team. 5. What do you hope to gain from receiving mentorship as part of the SIParCS program? Students may apply to up to two (2) SIParCS projects. 6a. Identify the project and why you are interested in this chosen project. 6b. If you're applying to a second project, identify the project and why you are interested in this chosen project. Clearly address your distinct interest for each project. 7. Share your non-technical interests, collaborations, and skills that are not covered in your resume, CV, or transcript. #2.
