CERN openlab Summer Student Programme

Are you a B.Sc. or M.Sc. student (who will have completed at least three years of full-time studies at university level by next spring) in Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering or Physics, interested in working on advanced IT projects for two full months during the summer?

During two full months corresponding to nine weeks (June-September 2015), the CERN openlab summer students will be given a series of IT lectures (link is external) especially prepared for them by experts at CERN. The students also have the opportunity to attend the CERN generic student programme lectures (link is external). Visits to the accelerators and experimental areas are part of the programme, as well as external visits. A report on the work project carried out is to be handed in at the end of the stay.

You must be a Bachelor or Master student in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics or Engineering.
You have completed, by summer 2015, at least three years of full-time studies at university level.
You will remain registered as a student during your stay at CERN. If you expect to graduate during summer 2015, you are also eligible to apply.
You have not worked at CERN before (ie as a User or a Technical Student).
A good knowledge of English is mandatory; knowledge of French would be an advantage.
