A total of 156 hours will be spent on tasks including instrument development, subject recruitment, data collection and entry, data analysis, and codebook development. These activities will allow students to expand their knowledge base and advance research in the field. Upon completion of the internship, students will submit an essay detailing their experiences and insights as a Research Intern. Qualified students have access to opportunities in Lincoln and Omaha.
