Students will have the opportunity to work at one of the foremost policy institutions consulting on nonproliferation issues. The internship includes direct classroom training by CNS faculty, paid work on professional research projects on a full-time basis, and opportunity to experience top-level policymaking among the key international stakeholders in the nonproliferation regime.
Previous research projects with students range from open source and geospatial methods of identifying nuclear facilities, to a social media analysis of public discourse related to the Iranian nuclear deal. The work that CNS does is broad and interdisciplinary, and ranges from highly technical scientific techniques, to the broader political and institutional factors influencing the global nonproliferation regime. It is appropriate for social science students, as well as natural science students that might have an interest in working on projects in this area
