Internships and Other Opportunities in Computer Science

There are multiple sources for internships and summer research at Sewanee; see the Sewanee Career Readiness internship pages for complete lists. 

SPECIFIC TO COMPUTER SCIENCE:
  • The McGriff-Bruton Internship in Mathematics and Computer Science is offered each year to fund students working on a project with a professor in our department.
  • The Fund for Innovative Teaching and Learning is a campus-wide, competitive fund for collaborative research with one or more professors, possibly spanning departments.

For each, the professor(s) must be willing to supervise a project over the summer. Both pay over $300/week for the duration. FITL projects are expected to be student-initiated; both require an application by the beginning of March so check the Career services link for details.

IN THE SURROUNDING AREA:

National corporations with summer internships: Google, Amazon, Apple, Epix, others can be found with a directed web search. For example: internships.com, computersciencedegreehub

Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN. From the website: "Are you ready for a science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) research experience with Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s prestigious scientists and engineers? Are you looking for an internship opportunity with a research or technical focus? If you are an undergraduate student at a college or university, with an interest in STEM, ORNL may be the place for you!"

RESEARCH EXPERIENCES FOR UNDERGRADUATES (REU)

 
VANDERBILT’S BIOMEDICAL INFORMATICS 
A summer internship program is looking for summer interns interested in the intersection of computing with health, specifically around three focus areas: computationally-intensive approaches (e.g., data science, natural language processing, predictive analytics), precision health (e.g., phenome/genome-wide association studies, genomics, proteomics), and human-technology interaction (e.g., human-computer interaction, human factors engineering, sociotechnical systems).
In addition to learning more about biomedical/health informatics and participating in meaningful research projects, as part of our NSF REU site, students will receive a stipend, housing, a food allowance, compensation for travel to/from Nashville at the start/end of summer, and coverage for travel to a conference if their work is selected for presentation. We’re currently updating our website to add the NSF-related information, but interested students are encouraged to contact Kim Unertl directly:
