	The Resource Optimization Initiative (ROI) provides a stimulating environment to carry out research in designing novel means for resource management in the context of developing countries. We provide an office space with facilities for researchers to prepare for field work, carry out data analysis and prepare articles and research papers. We also provide a research assistant for long term internships. These research assistants work with the intern to gather information from literature sources, carry out field work, help with translation from the local language (Kannada in Karnataka) to English – during interviews and meetings, help with data analysis, preparation of articles/ papers/ reports. We also have a growing database of experts, including those on our advisory board who can interact with interns to provide a sound platform for discussions on various research fields. ROI will also guide interns on housing, food and travel within India. If you are interested in applying for an internship contact our research director Dr. Megha Shenoy Previous interns include students from the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, Yale University, New Haven, USA, University of Lausanne, Switzerland, University of Sydney, Australia and TERI University, New Delhi, India
