Thu, 26 Feb 2015 09:53:23 -0500

Good afternoon,

The Office of Opinion Research (OPN) at the U.S. Department of State has
undergraduate and graduate student internship opportunities for the fall
of 2015. OPN conducts polls in more than 100 countries worldwide and
provides information about global public opinion to policymakers at the
State Department and across the government. Interns will assist analysts
in all aspects of this work, including: questionnaire design; data quality
checks; and analyzing, reporting, and briefing the data to policymakers.
In addition to strong data skills and experience with public opinion
research, a strong regional interest is preferable, as interns will be
assigned based on this background to a regional division within the
office.

All applications must be submitted via USAJobs and applicants should
clearly signal that they are interested in interning with the Bureau of
Intelligence and Research, Office of Opinion Research. Applicants must be
able to receive a top secret clearance. Fall internship applications are
due by March 2,, 2015. For details, please see the USAJobs

For questions about the opportunity or the application process, please
