Research Internships For Undergraduates
This project is a curated directory of research internships and programs for undergraduate students, specifically focused on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It serves as an academic opportunity database and a resource for early-career students to find research placements across various global regions and institutions.
The repository is maintained as a collaborative, Git-curated resource where new entries are vetted and integrated through version control pull requests. Data is stored as a searchable index of research placements using a markdown-based opportunity database of structured flat files.
The directory covers undergraduate research discovery and STEM career planning by organizing placements into global, regional, and country-specific categories.
