National Internships in Psychology

Dr. Patrick Cabe from the Department of Psychology and Counseling at the
University of North Carolina at Pembroke has put together a set of links to potential undergraduate level internships and/or research experiences for psychology students.

If you want to earn UW-L credit for an experience like this, you would need to arrange it through Career Services and the Psychology Department.

1.  The NSF site for summer REUs (research experience for undergraduates) is a good place to start. http://www.nsf.gov/home/crssprgm/reu/reu_search.cfm.

Dr. Cabe has also collected several sites over the past few years for research experiences, internships, etc., for psychology (and other) students. Some of them may be out of date, but, because programs tend to recycle year to year, they are worth checking for current information.

Dr. Cabe concludes “ Ambitious students might dig in the websites for federal agencies, too, many of which have summer programs (internships, research experiences under various names, summer hiring programs in research labs). One of my students uncovered several internship opportunities that might be appropriate for psychology students with the FBI, for example, and some of my own contacts from years back have indicated the possibility (funding dependent) of summer hires for students in research labs at the Environmental Protection Agency. “
