CERN Post Career Break Graduate Fellowship, 2016

CERN invites applications for post career break graduate fellowship from students wishing to re-start their careers. Fellowships are awarded both for research work (experimental or theoretical physics) and advanced development work and related research in a broad range of applied science, computing and engineering fields. Fellowship is aimed at candidates with either a Junior or a Senior Fellow profile depending on the qualifications and experience of the individual. One feature of the COFUND programme is the possibility to spend up to 12 months of the Fellow contract at another institute, provided that the work still corresponds to your original project at CERN.
