At the end of their internship each intern presents their final product to AIER staff and visiting scholars and is advised on how to develop their project further. They leave not only with a research product but a new understanding what engaging in deep careful and detailed analysis of issues relevant to life and liberty of individuals not just to academic discussion entails.
