GLD Interns
Each semester, GLD welcomes interns from various fields within social sciences and data science, including Political Science, Gender Studies, Global Studies, Social Sciences, Economics, Statistics, and IT. Our goal is for all interns to acquire new skills, gain valuable experience in a research setting, and boost their employability by applying their academic knowledge in real-world situations.
