opportunities

for prospective students in the DILL Lab

Are we recruiting?

We are no longer recruiting PhD students, or undergrads. We might be looking for 1-2 Masters students in Fall; see below.

Due to the high volume of email, there is very little chance Swabha will be responsive to your email, sorry! See special cases below.  

PhD Applicants

We recruit PhDs only through the formal PhD application at USC. We will announce open slots, if any, only in late Fall 2024. There is very little chance Swabha will respond to any email about PhD recruitment, sorry!

If you’re already at USC:

  • PhD Students
    If you think your interests overlap considerably with DILL and would like to collaborate, do email Swabha.
  • Masters Students
    RAships
    We are looking to recruit motivated Masters students in Fall 2024. If interested in our lab, please fill out this form. Swabha will NOT respond to any emails, sorry! Also, do consider enrolling for Swabha’s class CSCI-544 Applied NLP in Fall’24, which might lead to collaborations.
    TAships
    We are not looking for any Masters Students as TAs at the moment.
  • Undergrads
