How much do research intern jobs pay per hour?
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Research Intern, and why are they important?
What is the difference between Research Intern vs Research Assistant?
| Aspect | Research Intern | Research Assistant |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Typically students or recent graduates; some internships may require coursework in the field | Often students or early-career professionals; may require some relevant coursework or experience |
| Work Environment | Temporary, project-based; often in academic, government, or corporate settings | More consistent, ongoing support roles in labs or research teams |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Common in universities, research institutes, and corporate R&D departments | Primarily in academic labs, research institutions, and industry R&D teams |
Research Interns typically are students or recent graduates gaining initial experience through temporary roles, while Research Assistants are more involved in ongoing research projects, often with some prior coursework or experience. Both roles support research activities but differ mainly in duration and level of responsibility.

What are some typical challenges a Research Intern might encounter when starting out, and how can they be addressed?
What Does a Research Intern Do?
As a research intern, it’s your job to assist your employer, usually a professor at your college or university, with a multitude of tasks. Your duties include conducting research, compiling data, implementing ideas, and helping write papers. You often work closely with other students and interns. The main qualifications are an interest in the research subject and strong communication skills. You usually need to be enrolled in a relevant degree program at the school to qualify. The short-term goal of a research intern position is to gain academic credit or work experience. The long-term goal is to turn the internship into a career.

A propos du stage
Les grands modeles de langage actuels (LLM) tendent naturellement a privilegier des contenus culturellement dominants a l'echelle mondiale, ce qui peut mener a une sous-representation des cultures locales et regionales, notamment pour le public francophone. Ce projet de recherche avant-gardiste vise a explorer comment une couche intermediaire agentique - s'appuyant sur l'architecture MCP (Model Context Protocol) - peut agir comme un levier de pilotage (steering layer) pour influencer positivement la generation et la priorisation de contenus culturellement pertinents. L'objectif n'est pas de concevoir un systeme de recommandation traditionnel, mais d'etudier scientifiquement, en conditions reelles d'usage, comment differents types de signaux injectes dans cette couche agentique modifient le comportement des modeles de pointe. En etroite collaboration avec notre equipe d'ingenierie, le ou la stagiaire jouera un role cle pour decoder ces mecanismes d'influence et poser les jalons de systemes agentiques plus inclusifs et adaptes localement.

- Construire un golden dataset de requetes de test culturellement ambigues ou representatives, couvrant des domaines varies comme le cinema, la musique, les medias et la litterature.
- Mettre en place des interfaces simples, des dashboards ou des notebooks interactifs permettant de comparer les modeles en parallele et d'annoter facilement les resultats.
- Exploiter et analyser les interactions reelles issues du systeme MCP pour comprendre la reaction des agents aux signaux de pilotage et transformer ces logs en insights de recherche.
