This is for a 2025 summer internship with the following start dates: May - August or June - September for quarter system schools.

IBM Research is looking for strong BS, MS and PhD level interns to join our team in 2025 to work in the area of large scale language models. Our team directly contributes to the construction of IBM's largest scale AI models as well as the software supporting them, and we have a range of possible internship projects in the general areas of model architecture, analysis, training and alignment techniques, reasoning and planning, tool use, multilinguality, curation of challenging benchmarks and human preference data, structured input and output and programming models for LLM applications.

In this role, you are expected to conduct novel research which requires the ability to research and understand state of the art techniques, datasets and results in the specific area of the internship as described above. A desirable outcome of the research is a high quality submission to a conference.
