AI/ML Research Intern — Summer 2027

Apply early for priority consideration. Gallup has limited openings for this internship, and the position will be filled quickly. As an AI/ML research intern at Gallup, you’ll investigate important technical questions at the intersection of artificial intelligence, machine learning and behavioral science. Working alongside AI researchers and engineers, you’ll design experiments, evaluate new models and methods, build prototypes, and help determine which emerging AI approaches are worth applying to Gallup’s products and AI systems. You’ll work in a unique environment where Gallup’s behavioral science, proprietary data and decades of research meet rapidly advancing AI technology. Your work will influence real systems designed to help people and organizations make better decisions. What You’ll Do

During your internship, you will

Research advances in AI and machine learning, reproduce promising approaches and evaluate whether they meaningfully improve on existing methods Design and contribute to experiments and prototypes that test new approaches to AI systems, applied machine learning and AI-enabled products Investigate technical questions involving AI systems, retrieval and knowledge systems, model evaluation, machine learning, and other areas relevant to Gallup’s AI research Turn research questions into hypotheses, experiments, measurable results and technical recommendations Analyze experimental results, identify limitations and unexpected findings, and clearly communicate what the evidence supports Evaluate new models, methods and tools through benchmarks, experiments and hands-on implementation Document methods, results and recommendations so other researchers and engineers can reproduce and build on your work Collaborate closely with AI researchers, engineers and other technical partners as new capabilities move from research into real systems What You Need Enrollment in a bachelor’s or graduate degree program in computer science, data science, machine learning
