Student Internships and Current Research Accordion Closed<\/span><\/h4>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n

You can directly support our students by giving to our Emerging Communities research fund<\/a>. The work our students do for the RDY Lab is designed to give employers the opportunity to evaluate talent, skills, and growth. Political Science students can also get University credit towards their Experience of Difference requirement<\/a>. A paid internship gives students the critical resources they need to cover expenses while working on their applied skills and preparing for their next step after graduation. Internships typically last one or two semesters.<\/p>\n
If you are interested in supporting a student, please contact us at RDY_Fund@nau.edu<\/a> for information.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
