OverviewResearch Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment.The Networking Research Group (NRG) within Systems and Foundations at Microsoft Research focuses on basic and applied research in networked systems, including network security, verification, sensing, mobile computing and emerging networking challenges in the age of artificial intelligence (AI). We build systems, engage with academia, publish scientific papers, publish software for the research community, and transfer cutting-edge technologies to Microsoft's product groups. Over the years, the work of NRG researchers has resulted in publications in top academic systems and networking conferences and has had a significant impact on Microsoft products, including Azure Networking, XBOX, the Windows Networking Stack, and many more. NRG members collaborate with adjacent research groups in systems, formal methods, optimization and security. You can see our recent publications at: Networking Research Group: Publications - Microsoft Research. We seek Research Interns with strong research and development skills, with backgrounds in technologies underlying networks, systems, sensing, security, AI, edge computing, optimization and probability theory. The ideal candidates should have strong ability to work with researchers at Microsoft to push forward research agendas, be a team player in a collaborative and supportive environment with outstanding programming and analytic skills. Applicants should demonstrate depth of knowledge in networking, distributed systems and operating systems, and demonstrate experience in low-level programming, experimentation, and modeling. Come join our team for a summer of exciting research!
ResponsibilitiesResearch Interns put inquiry and theory into practice. Alongside fellow doctoral candidates and some of the world's best researchers, Research Interns learn, collaborate, and network for life. Research Interns not only advance their own careers, but they also contribute to exciting research and development strides. During the 12-week internship, Research Interns are paired with mentors and expected to collaborate with other Research Interns and researchers, present findings, and contribute to the vibrant life of the community. Research internships are available in all areas of research, and are offered year-round, though they typically begin in the summer. | |
