    Overview

    SRI is a nonprofit, independent research institute serving government, philanthropy, and industry to create and evaluate high-value and innovative solutions to some of the world's most important problems in education, technology, the environment, safety, and health.

    SRI Education, a research division of SRI International, has been reducing barriers and optimizing outcomes for students of all ages and backgrounds through technical assistance, research, and evaluation of education policies, programs, and interventions, with a focus on learners who have been traditionally underserved. Our 160 researchers are leaders in research on STEM and computer science, digital learning and technology policy, literacy and language arts education, teaching quality, school reform, behavior, supporting students with disabilities, and early learning. We also have a growing portfolio of work on the use of AI in education.

We are seeking at least an 8-week commitment but could extend the internship if mutually agreed upon.
