Year-Round Internships
Through the year- round Internship Program, The Cyprus Institute Graduate School aims to expose young talented students and scholars to an international research experience and to encourage and inspire them in the pursuit of a scientific career. Interns will have a unique opportunity to carry out research at the institute's state-of-the-art facilities supervised by a mentor and to be introduced to the use of the latest methods and techniques.
During the application process, students will have the option to either:
(1) select one project from the table below or
(2) suggest a project of interest*
*students who propose their own suggested project must note that this will be considered, provided that the institute has the capacity in terms of supervision and facilities
Applications are welcome from candidates worldwide with a keen interest and a relevant scientific background. Students who are accepted to the program will be assigned to one project.
Some of the projects may be offered remotely.
