What is Researching Reality?
Researching Reality Internship is for college students and researchers who wish to apply social and economic principles to real-life problems through in-depth research projects. It provides interns with valuable training in areas of research, analysis, writing, and above all critical thinking. Interns study various agencies, boards, corporations, departments, schemes and programs of the state governments and Municipal Corporations; evaluating existing systems to recommend sustainable and long-term policy improvements in the functioning of government structures. The objective of the internship is to further citizens’ understanding of the workings of the government and encourage greater independent fact-based qualitative and quantitative research so that the next time citizens demand better governance, they can back their claims.
The internship is open during a summer and also a non-summer period.
Objectives:
| 1. To create an understanding of the impact of public policy on citizens |
| 2. To develop the ability to understand and critically evaluate public policy from a rational perspective. |
| 3. To create an awareness of liberal approach to public policy. |
