Interns and their academic supervisors
Starting a summer internship research project with a fixed 5-month timeline
Use cases
About
The Intern Project Plan mind map template provides a structured 5-month timeline (July–December) for managing an intern research project, covering 37 nodes across preparation, fieldwork, analysis, manuscript writing, and presentation. It includes specific tasks such as 'prep. all materials' with subtasks like 'كتابه الخطاب للكليات' (writing letters to colleges) in English/Arabic, obtaining approvals from Dr. Ebtissam and Prof. Wedad, and creating survey instruments on Qualtrix. The template also outlines social media account creation (Twitter, Facebook, G+) and a 'final research proposal to CDRC'. This Intern Project Plan mind map serves as a comprehensive cheat sheet for interns and supervisors to track milestones and deliverables.
