Duration: 19-Jun-2017 to 11-Aug-2017
Compensation: Paid 5,000 USD
Internship Location: Stanford, California, USA
Minimum Education Level: No Minimum
Description:
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 different
departments across Stanford.

The program is 8 weeks, from 6/19/2017 - 8/11/2017. Students should plan to be
available for the entirety of the summer program in order to attend training
sessions at the beginning of the program and final presentations at the end.
In general, interns are expected to be in the lab full-time, 40 hours/week,
from 9AM - 5PM, Monday - Friday.

This is an interdisciplinary summer program, and we encourage students from a
wide range of majors to apply. Previous research experience is not required.

The program is intended for rising college Juniors and Seniors from outside
Stanford University, but we will consider all applicants for the program.
Stanford undergraduates who are interested in the CSLI program should apply to
their department or program's summer fellowship (e.g. Psychology, Linguistics,
Symbolic Systems) and speak with their research mentor about participating.

To be eligible, you must be a documented U.S. citizen, a permanent resident in
possession of an alien registration card (I-555), or an international student
enrolled in a U.S. undergraduate institution.

Interns will receive a stipend of $5,000 to cover travel and summer room and
board.
