OIE Student Researcher Opportunities

OIE has both undergraduate assistant and graduate researcher positions all year long. 

Student Researcher Duties and Benefits

Student researchers support the OIE by ensuring data quality and accuracy, and by advancing educational research by synthesizing original research.

Student researchers benefit from learning research design, conducting a literature review, and utilizing data visualization software. Student researchers also have a chance to submit their research for presentation at local conferences.
