[Catarina Vales]

The Cognitive Development Laboratory in the Psychology Department at
Carnegie Mellon University invites applications for a summer research
internship to broaden participation in developmental science. Students will
work on an NSF-funded project* examining experience-driven changes in
semantic organization. The selected candidates will work closely with Dr.
Catarina Vales and Dr. Anna Fisher, and be part of an active research
laboratory. This is a paid internship requiring 40h/week (8-10 weeks;
$3,000-$3,600 stipend). Members of underrepresented groups in science are
especially encouraged to apply. The deadline to apply is March 10, 2020.
Questions can be directed to cvales at andrew.cmu.edu.

To be eligible, participants must:
- be U.S. citizens or permanent residents
- be enrolled full-time at a U.S. institution to obtain an undergraduate
degree (thus, students graduating in the Spring semester are not eligible)

research opportunity and how this opportunity will help achieve their
professional goals (1 page)
