Analysis Group internships

Analysis Group’s Summer Analyst Intern role mirrors the full-time Analyst experience. Interns are assigned to case teams when they join and may work on multiple cases during the summer. Unlike full-time analysts, who participate in an internal labor market that gives them more choice over cases as they gain experience, summer interns start with assigned teams. [AG4]

The internship includes technical and nontechnical training through Analysis Group University, topical presentations, senior-staff touchpoints, a peer mentor and an advisor. Interns are evaluated for the opportunity to return as full-time Analysts. A return offer is an evaluation outcome, not an automatic program benefit. [AG4]

Evidence snapshot: 2026-09-04. This is a dated research summary, not a live vacancy feed.

Program: Paid Summer Analyst internship, normally 10–12 weeks; off-cycle internships are not typical. [AG4][AG5]

Eligibility: Generalist targets rising seniors and first-year master’s students in named quantitative fields; healthcare lists relevant bachelor’s/master’s fields. [AG4]

Pay: Paid program; no role-specific amount established. [AG5]

Locations: Geographic preferences belong in the application; check each office’s actual seat. [AG4]

Routes: Generalist economic consulting; antitrust; financial/securities analysis; damages/IP; healthcare outcomes/market access. [AG2][AG4][AG6][AG7]

Distinctives: Generalist economic consulting and healthcare outcomes/market-access work use separate Summer Analyst paths. [AG3][AG4][AG7]

Prepare: Defend one dataset, method, alternative explanation and finding that changed under a sensitivity test.

Analysis Group describes its work as rigorous economic and financial analysis applied to legal and business problems. Its consultants work with internal experts and affiliated experts from academia, industry and government. The firm has been involved in major antitrust and competition, intellectual-property, securities and health-care matters, as well as policy and business-strategy work. [AG2]

The model differs from management consulting in the decision and standard of proof. A strategy consultant may ask what a company should do. An economic consultant may ask whether conduct harmed competition, what damages are attributable to an event, whether a proposed merger changes competitive incentives, what a security was worth, or what the evidence says about a treatment or policy. [AG2][AG3]

Many projects are connected to litigation or regulation. The case team can include lawyers, corporate clients, professors and industry experts. Analysts need to produce calculations, research and exhibits that can withstand review by opposing experts or regulators. That makes documentation and reproducibility central skills.

The health-care practice is also substantial. Analysis Group says it works with pharmaceutical manufacturers, biotech and medical-device companies, payers, managed-care organizations and government agencies, using capabilities including pharmacoeconomics, epidemiology, biostatistics, pricing and contracting, data sourcing and data-science infrastructure. [AG7]

Generalist interns may work across any Analysis Group practice area. The firm says it seeks rising seniors and first-year master’s students in computer science, economics, finance, mathematics, statistics or related fields. [AG4]

The work can include antitrust, securities, commercial disputes, intellectual property, M&A, regulatory matters, finance or other analytical cases. A student might build a damages model, analyze pricing or transaction data, research market structure, estimate an econometric model, test a hypothesis, review financial evidence or prepare materials supporting an expert.

The strongest candidate evidence combines quantitative depth with research judgment. A regression result is not enough. Explain why the model is appropriate, what assumptions it uses, what the comparison group is, how data were constructed and what finding would weaken the conclusion.

Programming can matter. Analysis Group explicitly lists Java, Python, R, SAS, Stata, VBA and other tools and references econometric estimation, survival analysis and machine learning. [AG4] The candidate does not need every language, but should be able to explain one quantitative project end to end.

Health-care interns are staffed to the firm’s HEOR, Epidemiology & Market Access practice. Analysis Group seeks students pursuing bachelor’s or master’s degrees in fields such as biostatistics, economics, epidemiology, health economics, health policy, mathematics, public health, statistics or related subjects. [AG4]

The work combines scientific and economic reasoning. Interns can support analyses involving treatment outcomes, safety, cost-effectiveness, real-world evidence, pricing, market access, epidemiology or health policy. The firm’s health-care practice integrates pharmacoeconomics, epidemiology, biostatistics and data-science infrastructure. [AG7]

A strong health-care candidate should understand the research question before choosing the method. For example, a treatment comparison can fail because the populations differ, follow-up differs or outcomes are selected poorly. A market-access question can require understanding payers, evidence, price, patient access and regulation.

Health-care analytics is not clinical care. The intern’s contribution is analytical and research-oriented. Students should not imply medical authority they do not have.

Antitrust and competition have been core to Analysis Group since the firm’s founding. Its current practice page describes work using industrial-organization theory, econometrics and industry expertise in antitrust litigation and merger investigations, including class certification, liability, damages and competitive effects of proposed mergers. [AG6]

A student preparing for this work should be comfortable with market definition, substitution, pricing, competition, pass-through, damages and empirical evidence. The legal standard matters, but the analyst’s contribution often involves economic evidence rather than legal advocacy.

A useful project is to analyze how a price change affected demand using public data. State why the observed relationship may not be causal, identify confounders and explain what additional data would improve the conclusion.

Analysis Group’s broader work includes securities, finance and commercial disputes. Analysts can study trading patterns, valuation, financial statements, event effects, damages and market behavior. [AG2]

Finance students should prepare more than valuation formulas. Explain data sources, benchmark choices, event windows, assumptions and sensitivity. A precise number without a defensible method is weak evidence in a dispute.

Accounting literacy can also help because many legal and financial questions depend on how economic events appear in financial statements or transaction records.

Analysis Group’s internship materials explicitly describe statistical programming and machine learning. The firm also maintains separate advanced-degree data-science career paths. [AG4][AG5]

For an undergraduate generalist intern, the goal is not to maximize model complexity. The goal is a defensible analysis. A candidate should be able to discuss missing data, measurement, selection, model specification, sensitivity, robustness and interpretation.

Good evidence includes a research paper, thesis, data-science project, economics study or finance analysis where someone else could reproduce the result from the documented process.

Ask how case teams are assigned, how often the advisor reviews work and whether the intern can work across more than one matter.

Analysis Group’s generalist and healthcare Summer Analyst routes share quantitative work but answer different questions. Generalist cases can concern competition, finance or damages; healthcare work can focus on outcomes, epidemiology and market access. Research judgment matters as much as the model. [AG3][AG4][AG7]
