The Evidence Quarter Internship programme now open

14 April 2022

The EQ Summer Internship programme is back, and once again there are several opportunities available at WWCSC.

Following the success of last year’s programme, The EQ is looking for enthusiastic university students with a passion for finding evidence-led solutions to some of the biggest social challenges facing the UK today.

Along with us, this year’s interns can apply for roles at three other EQ organisations: The Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI), Neighbourly Lab and Centre for Transforming Access and Student Outcomes in Higher Education (TASO).

More information on all participating organisations, as well as how to apply, is available on the EQ website.

Interns interested in our work can choose to join any of the below teams:

  • Research
  • Operations
  • Policy and Communications
  • Practice
  • Programmes

Interns will be integrated into their chosen team and will be able to attend team meetings, training, and other events, as well as gaining first-hand experience working in a dynamic organisation at the intersection of policy and research.
