Description:
In the CSLI program, interns will work closely with a faculty, postdoc, or
grad student mentor on an original cognitive science research project. They
will gain experience developing the project, collecting data, and analyzing
the results. In addition to their individual projects, interns will attend a
weekly seminar with such topics as reading a scientific paper, introduction to
the R data analysis platform, statistics and visualization, and presentation
skills. The program will culminate with each intern presenting their work to
an interdisciplinary audience.

The topical focus of the program will be on language, learning, computation,
and cognition, with an emphasis on giving students the technical skills they
need to complete an independent project. Mentors will be from cognitive
science departments across Stanford including Michael Bernstein (Computer
Science), Michael Frank (Psychology), Noah Goodman (Psychology), Dan Lassiter
(Linguistics), Chris Potts (Linguistics), and Meghan Sumner (Linguistics).

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
