| # Open Science Labs Internship Program | ||
|
|
||
| The Open Science Labs Internship Program aims to promote the engagement of a | ||
| wider audience in the realm of open-source software development. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Program Features | ||
|
|
||
| Each intern will be paired with a mentor who is an active member of the | ||
| community. The mentor will provide guidance to the intern in achieving the | ||
| specific goals of the internship. The internship will involve a series of | ||
| activities and contributions to open-source projects. The internship is expected | ||
| to have a minimum duration of 2 months and a maximum of six months. | ||
|
|
||
| [The Graph Network](https://thegraphnetwork.org), legally represented by | ||
| [ASCRES](https://site.ascres.org/site/), is our Fiscal Sponsor and will be in | ||
| charge of all the necessary paperwork. | ||
|

| heart of our mission lies the commitment to foster innovation and growth within | ||
| the realm of open science and open source. This program is an embodiment of that | ||
| commitment, providing an inclusive, dynamic, and nurturing environment for | ||
| contributors of all backgrounds-whether you're a student stepping into the world | ||
| of open-source, or a professional looking to give back and refine your skills. | ||
|
|
||
| This program is under [The GRAPH Network](https://thegraphnetwork.org) who | ||
| enhances our reach and impact across the open science community. | ||
|
|
||
| With a structure inspired by the Google Summer of Code, our program offers some | ||
| unique features: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Open Participation**: We welcome everyone from students to professionals, | ||
| embracing diversity in knowledge and experience. | ||
| - **Flexible Commitment**: A minimum of 20 hours per week allows for impactful | ||
| work while accommodating your schedule. | ||
| - **Biannual Cycles**: With two distinct cycles per year, there are ample | ||
| opportunities to get involved at a time that suits you best. | ||
| - **End-of-Cycle Presentations**: At the end of each cycle, participants are | ||
| encouraged to share their journey and project outcomes, enhancing their public | ||
| speaking and technical communication skills. | ||
| - **Non-Monetary Rewards**: While the internship does not offer financial | ||
| compensation, it offers invaluable experience, mentorship, networking | ||
| opportunities, and the satisfaction of contributing to open-source projects | ||
| that matter. | ||
|
|
||
| In this program, contributors will not only gain practical experience by working | ||
| on real-world projects but also become an integral part of a community striving | ||
| for a collective goal—advancing open source and open science for a better | ||

| English, as it is the primary language used for collaboration and | ||
| communication within the program. | ||
| - **Age Requirement**: All candidates must be at least 18 years old at the time | ||
| of applying to participate in the program. | ||
| - **Time Commitment**: Prospective interns are expected to dedicate a minimum of | ||

| opportunity, ideal for those looking to gain experience and grow their network | ||
| in the open science community. | ||
| - **Initial Contribution**: Before official acceptance, candidates should make a | ||
| small contribution to their project of interest. This allows mentors to assess | ||
| the candidate’s skills and commitment levels. | ||
|
|
||
| We seek candidates who are passionate about open science and eager to make | ||
| significant contributions to the open-source community. If you meet these | ||

|
|
||
| ### Requirements for Sub-Organizations | ||

|
||
| **Notes:** | ||
|
|
||
| - **GSoC Alignment Note**: Open Science Labs (OSL) is planning to participate as | ||
| a Mentoring Organization in the Google Summer of Code (GSoC). Consequently, | ||
| our Cycle 2 timeline is designed to align with the GSoC schedule. However, | ||
| please be aware that OSL's inclusion in GSoC is not guaranteed, and we will | ||
| confirm our participation status as soon as we have information. | ||
| - **GSoC Application Note**: If OSL is accepted into GSoC, all projects intended | ||
| for Cycle 2 will be submitted as part of our GSoC application. This submission | ||
| will aim to provide our projects and their prospective contributors the | ||
| opportunity to benefit from the structure, support, and recognition that GSoC | ||
| provides. | ||
| - **Cycle 2 Timeline**: The above estimates for Cycle 2 are tentative and should | ||
| be adjusted according to the actual GSoC schedule once announced. | ||
| - **OSL Internship Contingency Plan**: In the event that a project is not | ||
| accepted into GSoC, there's no need to worry. These projects will have the | ||
| opportunity to proceed within the regular OSL Internship/Apprenticeship | ||
| Program, following the same planned timeline. We believe in providing a | ||
| platform for all valuable projects, ensuring that they have the chance to move | ||
| forward and thrive with or without GSoC inclusion. | ||
|
|
||
| By preparing for these possibilities, OSL is committed to supporting project | ||
| continuity and offering a stable, enriching internship experience to all | ||
| participants. |
