What are some common challenges faced in a remote research internship, and how can I overcome them?

A remote research internship often presents challenges such as limited face-to-face interaction with mentors and peers, managing time effectively across different time zones, and staying motivated without an in-person environment. To overcome these, it's important to establish a clear communication schedule with your supervisor, use collaborative tools for project management, and set daily or weekly goals to stay on track. Proactively seeking feedback and participating in virtual team meetings can also help you stay connected and engaged with the broader research team.

What is the difference between Remote Research Internship vs Remote Research Assistant?

AspectRemote Research InternshipRemote Research Assistant
CredentialsTypically students or early-career individuals, may require relevant coursework or academic standingOften requires a degree or relevant experience, sometimes with specialized skills
Work EnvironmentRemote, often part-time or seasonal, with mentorship from supervisorsRemote, can be part-time or full-time, supporting ongoing research projects
Employer & Industry UsageUsed by universities, research institutions, and companies for training and project supportCommonly employed by research teams, labs, and academic institutions for project assistance

While both roles involve supporting research activities remotely, a Remote Research Internship is typically an educational opportunity for students or early-career individuals gaining experience, whereas a Remote Research Assistant is usually a more experienced role supporting ongoing research projects. The internship often emphasizes learning and mentorship, while the assistant role focuses on contributing to specific research tasks.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Research Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Research Intern, you need strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and foundational knowledge in your field of study, often supported by current enrollment in a relevant academic program. Familiarity with research databases, data analysis tools (such as Excel, SPSS, or Python), and project management platforms is typically required. Excellent written communication, self-motivation, and time management are crucial soft skills for succeeding independently in a remote environment. These skills and qualities are essential to ensure accuracy, effective collaboration, and timely completion of research tasks without direct supervision.

What is a Remote Research Internship?

A Remote Research Internship is a position that allows interns to contribute to research projects from a location outside of the traditional workplace, typically from home. Interns collaborate with supervisors and research teams virtually, using digital tools for communication, data collection, and analysis. These internships provide valuable hands-on experience in research methodologies, critical thinking, and project management, all while offering flexibility and the ability to work with organizations based in different locations. Remote research internships are available across various fields, including science, social sciences, technology, and humanities.

Children's Research Triangle (CRT) is a mental health non-profit that seeks to provide therapy to children and families in underserved communities. CRT has also been in the forefront of many issues related to maternal substance abuse in pregnancy, the outcomes of children prenatally exposed to alcohol and drugs, the child welfare implications of substance abuse in families, as well as the treatment of youth who have been exposed to trauma. The staff at CRT has written articles that have been published inPediatrics,The American Journal of Occupational Therapy,Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics,Research in Developmental Disabilities, and numerous other leading medical and psychological journals.


Intern description

The CRT research team is offering part-time unpaid research internships to qualified undergraduates in the Chicago area.Most of the work is remote; however,interns are expected to come into the office at least once a week in order to help with tasks on site.The fall cohort typically startsmid-Augustand goes throughmid-December, although scheduling can be flexible.Interns will be involved in multiple ongoing projects, such as:

  • ongoing evaluation of the Trauma Treatment Program
  • evaluation of a grant program providing training in Youth Mental Health First Aid
  • the development of a database about children 0 to 18 who have participated in psychological evaluations at CRT
  • evaluation of the Youth MIND program, which provides trauma-informed screening, assessment, and therapy to youth and families in the Chicago area

Students will receive the necessary training to do these tasks on these projects and will receive supervision from research team members led by a licensed clinical psychologist. Interns are expected to work at least 6 hours per week, but more hours can be accommodated. Internships can be set up for up to 3 semesters.


Qualified Applicants will be undergraduate students who have:
