What interns say
“Prior to beginning my project, I had no previous coding experience. However, over the course of the internship, I received invaluable guidance from the Research Computing team, which allowed me to successfully create a Python-based prototype sentiment analysis software.”
“Before the internship, I was not aware of the research software engineering role, and I am now considering it as a potential career path.”
“I have developed both individually and professionally, gaining coding skills, furthering my self-management abilities, and becoming better at responding to feedback and problem-solving.”
“It’s made me consider being a researcher, whether that be in a university lab, a doctoral candidate, or in industry.”
What supervisors say
“It was valuable to have somebody solely focused on research software development, a task which it is often difficult to have dedicated time and effort towards.”
“It provided me with an opportunity to gain experience as a lead supervisor on a project. The student acted as a catalyst for a new avenue of development of the research.”
“This was my first time working with an undergraduate intern, so the experience was extremely beneficial for me.”
“It developed a line of research which will be continued in the future, showing real-world potential for the work.”
