Subject: Snap Research Call for Interns

 

Snap Research is offering internships for spring, summer, and fall of 2019. We are looking for PhD students who are excited about pushing the state of the art in computer science areas such as graphics, vision, human-computer interaction, machine learning, natural language processing, deep learning, data science and more -- in ways that could be of interest to Snap Inc. as well as to the research community at large. We have just started recruiting, and we would love to hear from you!

 

You will collaborate with one or more researchers, with access to world-class product groups and design teams. We explore opportunities for technology transfer and regularly publish in leading journals and conferences. We are especially interested in fostering ongoing collaborations and are open to projects that last beyond the internship. We compensate interns well and provide access to large computational resources. We strive to create an environment that is both productive and fun.
