[quote=Anonymous]My child did a paid research internship with a university professor this summer as a rising senior. His teacher nominated him. He had to apply, along with the other 11 students in his cohort. He had to go through HR like a regular employee, including a background check and training. He worked on an existing research project (data science) and described the experience as stressful because he had to learn a new programming language and read several academic journals during a short period of time. He presented his part of the research project to the department and will participate in a poster presentation this semester. [/quote]
