What is a remote internship physics?

A Remote Internship in Physics is a virtual internship where students or recent graduates work on physics-related projects from a remote location. These internships often involve data analysis, simulations, research assistance, or coding tasks in fields like theoretical physics, astrophysics, or materials science. Interns typically communicate with mentors and teams via email, video calls, or collaboration platforms. This type of internship provides hands-on experience and enhances technical skills without requiring physical presence at a lab or office.

What kinds of projects and daily tasks can I expect during a remote internship in physics?

As a remote physics intern, you can expect to work on data analysis, run simulations, assist with literature reviews, and possibly help develop or test theoretical models. Daily tasks often include attending virtual meetings, collaborating with mentors or fellow interns using online platforms, and submitting updates or reports on your progress. Projects may range from analyzing experimental data to computational modeling, depending on the specific research focus of the team. This structure provides valuable exposure to real-world applications of physics and helps develop your research and technical communication skills in a remote setting.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a remote internship physics position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Internship Physics candidate, you need a solid understanding of core physics concepts, analytical skills, and often current enrollment in a relevant degree program. Familiarity with data analysis tools (such as Python, MATLAB, or Excel), scientific research methods, and sometimes experience with simulation software or lab-reporting systems is beneficial. Strong communication, self-motivation, and time management skills are vital for effective remote collaboration and independent progress. These abilities ensure you can contribute meaningfully to research projects, meet deadlines, and effectively engage with your virtual team.

Job description

If you love using innovative technology to tackle tough science problems and working in a fast-paced, results-oriented team environment, keep reading to learn more about the Strayos Applied Scientist internship opportunity.


Here at Strayos, we use advanced computer vision and machine learning on images and machine sensors data to build insights for Mining, Infrastructure and Construction industry. Our applied science team uses these datasets to better understand our customers critical business operations and how it is changing. We are seeking three exceptional students with experience interpreting and processing imagery to join our applied science team during a three-month internship based at Strayos' headquarters in Buffalo, WNY.


Over the course of this internship, you will work directly with our dynamic team of applied scientists who can share their deep knowledge of machine learning, remote sensing, geoscience, and physics. As an intern, you will learn how to implement novel, cutting-edge remote sensing and machine learning techniques to solve challenging research questions. To efficiently execute your solutions, you will access the Strayos' imagery archive and cloud-computing resources, and receive mentorship from one of our applied scientists. At the end of the internship, you will present your findings to the broader applied science team and learn more about future career opportunities at Strayos.


Responsibilities

  • Leverage our Python-based platform to query, access, and manipulate aerial imagery

  • Utilize machine learning or other classification techniques to analyze aerial imagery

  • Produce clear, concise results (e.g. ML models, statistics) for a project that can be completed during the course of the internship


Requirements

  • Candidates must currently be enrolled in an academic degree program in Geography, Geoscience, Earth Science, Engineering, Physics, Computer Science or a related field, within 1 year of completion.

  • Experience with Python & Numpy

  • Strong problem solving and critical thinking skills

  • Excellent written and verbal communication

  • Ability to work independently


Preferred skills

  • Experience with machine learning and image classification

  • Proficiency with the following Python packages: numpy, scikit-learn, keras

  • Experience working with aerial or satellite imagery and geospatial data.
