Advanced Special Projects Team

E.Y.O.L. educational programs include special paid internships for qualifying students on the Advanced Special Projects Team (ASPT), under the leadership of Dr. Michael McCullough and Diana Saville. The ASPT is composed of dedicated and high-performing students from across the US who aspire to make a major positive impact on humanity through entrepreneurship.

ASPT members work with and support leaders in medical innovation, impact investing, and social enterprise. Take a deep dive into the inner workings of seed-stage startup companies and nonprofits, learn what it takes to build and scale impactful organizations, and gain hands­-on experience with projects across a variety of skills/disciplines. 

Note: This program is strictly for students who qualify for Federal Work Study.
