About the Program
MISI is a 4-week internship program for graduating high school seniors to explore the future of software development. Software engineering is in an LLM-assisted renaissance, where ideas become working code faster than ever before.
The program is built on three foundational curriculum tracks — Software Engineering Fundamentals, LLM Fundamentals, and The Sustainable Developer — that are front-loaded during an intensive bootcamp, then woven through project work as just-in-time learning. Students work in teams of 2-4, guided by experienced software engineers, to build real software projects using AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code.
This combination of inquiry-based learning, proven engineering principles, and AI-assisted development prepares students for the future of computing—because while AI can write code fast, only humans can make it good. Intensive cognitive work also demands sustainable practices—ergonomics, breath techniques, movement, and structured rhythms that support physical and mental wellbeing throughout the program.
From team formation to deployed product in 4 weeks. No prior coding experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to build.

We're developing MISI openly, using the same knowledge, tools, and workflows that students will use in the program. The curriculum is written with AI-assisted development, version-controlled on GitHub, and continuously improved based on real-world feedback.
This isn't just transparency—it's practicing what we teach. Explore the source, see how it's made, and follow along as we build.
