Description of the internship
The Family Institute at Northwestern University sponsors an eight-week summer volunteer research internship program for advanced undergraduates who are interested in learning more about a career in clinical research and intervention with families. The program is coordinated by the research staff at The Family Institute at Northwestern University under the direction of Lynne Knobloch-Fedders, PhD, Director of Research, and is designed to give students broad exposure to a clinical and research environment.
The program runs from mid-June to early August and requires a 30-hour time commitment per week. Approximately 25 hours per week will be devoted to a research assistantship on a study currently being conducted at The Family Institute. The other 5 hours per week will be spent in educational seminars, including weekly research team meetings, professional development seminars, and research program seminars. Interns will work with the managers of their studies to set their weekly schedules; however, please note that some evening or weekend hours may be required.
