Research Capacity Building Internship Program (RCBI)
The International Institute of Migration and Development (IIMAD) invites motivated Undergraduates, Postgraduates, and early-career researchers to apply for its Research Capacity Building Internship Programme. Designed to nurture the next generation of scholars and practitioners, this internship offers a structured pathway into cutting-edge research, data-driven analysis, and evidence-based policy work.
Through a blend of guided training and hands-on project engagement, the programme provides young individuals with an opportunity to immerse themselves in real-world research on themes such as migration, ageing, climate change, gender, livelihoods, and social protection.
Ideal for those considering advanced academic pathways—including PhD programmes—or careers in government agencies, international organisations, research firms, or development institutions, the internship equips participants with strong quantitative, qualitative, and analytical competencies. Interns gain exposure to research tools, field-based learning, academic writing, and professional development under the mentorship of IIMAD’s experienced research team.
This programme is especially suited for individuals who have recently completed or are currently pursuing their studies and who aspire to build a robust foundation in interdisciplinary research and policy analysis.
