New Q-Step Internship Programme

Oxford Q-Step Centre is looking for organisations to take part in our new Q-Step Internship programme.  These internships will be offered to Oxford undergraduate social science students who are studying Quantitative Methods as part of their degrees in Philosophy, Politics & Economics and History & Politics.  We would expect them to be involved in a project where they could put their data skills to best use.  The internships will be 4-10 weeks long.  Participating employers will benefit from highly motivated Oxford undergraduates working on a specific project, and also from establishing links with the University of Oxford.
