The SRC Summer Internship Program is a 10 week, 20 - 40 hour per week paid position for undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in social science research. Interns will be typically assigned to an ongoing research study, attend appropriate seminars/courses on principles of survey research, and participate in a research symposium. The Internship Program is one of the diversity initiatives being undertaken by the Center. The program represents an additional strategy for the Center to build long term relations with promising scholars, employees, and college students.

Students will be able to gain:

• "Hands-on" experience working in survey design and operations.
• Work in an office environment where you'll gain teamwork, project management, and administrative skills.
• Combine social science and statistical theory with the practical challenges of day-to-day project implementation.
• Apply and develop your technical and communication skills.
• Learn the principles of survey research from leading practitioners in the field.
• Interns will be encouraged to apply for full-time positions at the Center upon completion of the internship or degree program.
