The computer science research section of Honda Research Institute USA (HRI-US), located in Mountain View California and Cambridge, Massachusetts, has several openings for internships this summer.
The application deadline is March 31, 2008. To apply send an e-mail to
including a cover letter stating your research interests and a CV. The subject line of your email should be your area of interest, selected from one of the area listed below. You can apply for multiple areas, but each area needs a separate application. Name your attachments like "john.smith.UniversityName.cv.pdf" - not like "honda.pdf". Failure to follow these instructions may result in delay in processing your application. We solicit applications from individuals with a strong background in CS or related areas and implementation skills.
The HRI-US internship program is designed to give students hands-on experiences in developing new research ideas. Each intern has at least an HRI-US researcher to work with and in general is expected to generate prototypes and scientific publications as a result of the internship. The general time frames for these positions overlap with typical academic summer months; depending on the project involved an internmay have longer or shorter stay.
HRI-US pays interns competitive salaries with benefits (e.g., paid company holidays) and provides for a comfortable yet competitive research environment with regular opportunities of learning as well. Interns from outside of the local area are eligible for relocation assistance. Details will be made available to high potential applicants.
Our areas of interest include the following.
- Computer Vision (object recognition, object detection, visual tracking, action recognition, high performance visual processing)
- Machine Learning (text categorization, spoken dialog systems, POMDP, policy search, decision making)
- Robotics (humanoid robot balance, human-robot interaction, agent intelligence, robot control, multimodal communication, motion planning)
