Assumption offers students several options for applying for paid summer research internships.  Summer research students work directly with a professor for 10 weeks during the summer break.  These competitive positions are full-time commitments for the entire 10 week period and give students a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in research.  Research internships are available through the Psychology Department, Honors Program, and Center for Neuroscience.
