From students nominated by over 50 participating universities and direct applicants from other schools, we select 12 or 13 talented college journalists for Winter/Spring (February to May) and Fall (September to December) classes each year. We have no summer program.During 16 weeks in Washington, students work full-time in major news bureaus. Twice a week, they gather for the major purpose of the program: 90-minute seminars on campaign, governance and interest group politics.

Internship/ Job - Computer Science

Posted by Nigel Marriner on October 4, 2007 in Internships, Career Opportunities

I was an honors student from 1999 to 2004 and I work for Syracuse Research Corporation (http://www.syrres.com). If you could please send out a notification to honors students with backgrounds in computer science and related research that we at SRC are looking for promising individuals for intern/co-op and full-time positions areas such as cyber and personnel security, natural language processing, social network analysis, and advanced algorithms, I would appreciate it. Those areas I mentioned are related to my field of study, but there are many other opportunities in signal analysis and more general computer science disciplines, as well.

They can forward their resumes to me at msweeney@syrres.com or to Mark Ruzekowitz (MarkR@syrres.com) (one of our HR representatives for the Information Science and Engineering division).
