*About the Internship*
The NSF-funded<http://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward.do?AwardNumber=1062317>Research
for Undergraduates (REU) internship program (Grant No. 1062317)
matches students with mentors at the Inter-university Consortium for
Political and Social Research (ICPSR), and supports exploration of a
research question from start to finish — including literature searches,
data analyses, and creation of conference-ready posters summarizing
students' research findings. Interns can attend graduate-level courses in
quantitative methods at the University of Michigan taught by leading
faculty across various research fields. Additionally, all ICPSR interns
learn valuable data-management techniques using statistical packages such
as SPSS, Stata, and SAS. Visit our
