Intel Corporation's Domestic Designs and Technologies Research Group
is calling for interns! As part of Domestic Designs and Technologies
Research, the ethnographic and design research team within the
Digital Home Group, you will work within a multidisciplinary team of
anthropologists, design researchers and documentary film makers to
explore and research `love and spirituality' and its intersection
with computers and technology, in and around the home.
DDTR is a driving force within the Digital Home Group: our charter
is to develop a clear & actionable understanding of daily life all
over the world, identify opportunities for our platforms to enable
experiences that consumers value, merge original insights with
technology, market, platform and planning intelligence to define
usage models & platform requirements, and seed future research &
platform opportunities. DHG's vision is to make Intel the trusted
foundation of your digital home. To that end, the Digital Home Group
develops computing and communications oriented platforms that
anticipate and satisfy the needs of consumers world-wide.
We will be offering 3 month paid internships starting in January '07
and April '07, for graduate students in anthropology, design
research or related social sciences. Interns must re-locate to the
Portland, Oregon area to work closely with the research team during
the entire length of the internship.
We are looking for individuals with experience in designing and
conducting both qualitative and/or quantitative user or design
research studies, including analysis of the resulting data.
Candidates should prepare a concise yet thorough 3-5 page proposal
to explore some aspect of love and spirituality and its intersection
with computers and technology in and around the home; inclusion of
how the proposed research fits with the candidate's own research
interests (broadly defined) is a plus. Exact responsibilities of the
position will be defined with the successful applicant based on the
proposal you submit.
Please submit your proposal (3-5 pages, including bibliographic
references) describing the research you'd like to do in this area
over the course of your internship to
[log in to unmask] <mailto:francoise.bourdonnec%40intel.com>
. Applications (CV + proposal) must be
received by October 31st and January 31st respectively for the Jan
and April start dates.
Please forward as appropriate - thanks!
