I think that you have a good idea already, such as mentioning the courses you have completed and relevant skills such as familiarity with Python. It is good that you have a realistic attitude that you might not be able to “actually contribute to the bulk of the research” in this internship. Be punctual; attentive; inquisitive; willing to do the jobs assigned to you, even the ones that are not deemed to be research-related, such as general clean-up. Of course, an intern’s job is to learn; however, do realize that your presence there can provide others a chance to learn to be a good mentor. Good luck in your search.
