This highly selective program provides twenty interns the opportunity to work with Columbia Business School's faculty on a research project in finance, economics, marketing, management, decision sciences, operations, accounting, or data analytics.  

The work may include literature reviews, data collection and cleaning, web scraping, and statistical analysis. Some projects may require skills in advanced analytics, machine learning, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence. Behavioral interns may be staffed on multiple projects: conducting literature reviews, coding data, performing statistical analyses, and running experiments through the Behavioral Research lab. 

In addition, the interns take part in a weekly research seminar series with faculty, allowing the interns to be exposed to the variety of research performed in the business school. The experience culminates with each intern presenting their work to the CBS research community.
