Description:
The Harvard Lab for Developmental Studies invites undergraduate students and
graduating seniors to apply for our 2019 summer internship program under the
direction of Dr. Susan Carey and Dr. Jesse Snedeker. Our research asks how
infants can go from their initial conceptual and linguistic state to the vast,
abstract, and uniquely human adult state.  Specific projects focus on
causality, kind representations, executive function and conceptual change, the
development and acquisition of language, and the relationship between
syntactic and semantic representations of language. Interns will be
participating in all aspects of our research programs.

Applicants are encouraged to apply for outside funding, but a stipend of $1500
will be awarded to any interns who lack this funding.
