Summer Internship at Temple - Apply Soon

You are invited to consider the following Summer Internship opportunity.

Are you interested in exploring psychology beyond mere class work? Do you want to go to graduate school? Do you want hands-on experience with cutting-edge research? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then the Temple University Infant Lab or the Temple University Research in Spatial Cognition Lab might be a great place for you to spend your summer vacation.

These labs, directed by Professors Kathy Hirsh-Pasek and Nora Newcombe, conduct research on language acquisition, parent-child play interactions,spatial development, memory development, and spatial learning both in theory and application. We are currently looking for bright, energetic students who are hungry to peer into the world of children and spatial intelligence. In addition to the spectacular experience, we may be able to offer an honorarium. This is also a specific recruitment effort for underrepresented minority students.

If you are interested in this opportunity, please send the following to our lab coordinator, Katrina Ferrara by e-mail at katrina.ferrara@gmail.com:

(1) A resume indicating your academic and volunteer experiences
(2) Your availability during the summer (e.g., number of hours per week)
