Do you have a positive outlook and like to laugh about quirky things? Are you excited about working with people from many backgrounds and with different opinions? What about working alongside a few office dogs? If the answer is YES, you might be a great social science intern at Knology! ### About Knology Knology is a collective of over 30 scientists, writers, and educators dedicated to using research to untangle complex social issues. Equity, transparency, and deliberation are the foundation of our work process, and we respect the unique perspectives of each member of our team. These perspectives are informed by our team’s range of personal, professional, and academic experience in fields such as cognitive science, linguistic anthropology, human rights education, political science, and conservation psychology We work closely with partners who do critical, on-the-ground work so we can build our studies around the understanding that no issue exists in isolation from social and environmental contexts. As a result, we can better develop practical approaches to thorny problems. Across all of our work, we are committed to sharing our data and results. ### Requirements In addition to the About You questions (above), there are a few more things we need. Candidates should: * Have completed at least three years of an undergraduate degree, preferably graduated or in a master’s program; and * Have the ability to work in our New York City office.

Interns are considered part of the team and are actively invited to join meetings, learn about all of our work, and participate in project work. Interns are expected to work a minimum 16 hours during the workweek, anywhere from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM. The schedule can be flexible to suit other work and school demands. ### Expected Benefits Interns gain a great deal of skill in applied research, often contributing to advancement of their area of study and learning principles alongside experts in the field.
