About the Internship

As an intern for Busara's Research and Advisory team you will get the chance to dive headfirst into the world of behavioral science and get firsthand experience working on projects in the development space alongside your mentors.
This is not your coffee-grabbing internship! Interns are tasked with supporting the research, composing reports, client deliverables, and analysis on ongoing projects, in close coordination with Analysts, Associates and Engagement Directors, thus exposing them to all sides of research. This is a full time internship for 10-12 weeks.

Requirements
Who are we looking for?

Students in their third year or fourth year of undergraduate studies, students in masters programs, and recent graduates who have completed their course within the last 6 months.
Students preferably based out of Lagos, since the internship will likely entail some fieldwork.
Busara loves diversity of thought and we will accept applicants from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds – psychology, sociology, economics, public policy, political science, neuroscience, statistics, marketing and so on.
Interest in qualitative and quantitative research and familiarity with data analysis (Excel, Stata, R and/or other programming languages)
Fluency and excellent communication and writing skills with a mastery of English and Swahili
Hunger to learn, high level of self-motivation and energy, and an optimistic “can-do” attitude
