Research Intern - AI/ML for Electricity Infrastructure Planning

Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for emerging research careers, offering the opportunity to work within world-class research labs led by globally recognized scientists and engineers. Research Interns contribute to innovation across scientific and technical disciplines that address real-world challenges in computing, sustainability, energy systems, economics, public policy, and beyond. Microsoft Research (MSR) is seeking Research Interns to work at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and electricity infrastructure planning. Research Interns will join ongoing research efforts that explore how AI—especially large language models (LLMs) and agentic AI systems—can support planning, permitting, siting, grid modeling, and decision-making in electricity systems.
