dSHARP, Carnegie Mellon University’s digital scholarship center, is offering an eight-week paid summer internship for those interested in working on pre-existing projects. From the announcement:
The Summer Intern will be expected to work on two to four pre-existing projects during their tenure, with the projects determined based on how their skills and interests best match with current center and faculty projects. Example projects they might work on include the Bridges of Pittsburgh (databases, GIS, graph theory), the Carnegie Mellon Encyclopedia of Science History (history of science, web publishing, editorial work), or Digits (digital preservation). As appropriate, the Summer Intern may also work collaboratively with center faculty to develop digital resources for the dSHARP website (WordPress, digital pedagogy).

- previous experience in digital scholarship, digital humanities, or digital publishing
- ability to work both independently and collaboratively in an innovative and interdisciplinary environment
