Join the Fully Funded CERN Doctoral Student Program 2024 to study in Switzerland. Explore research opportunities in physics and engineering at CERN. Apply now!
Enroll in CERN’s PhD student project and achieve substantial milestones in your thesis project throughout your stay (for 36 months) at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland. Registration is ongoing and such a rare opportunity comes your way just once. This is simply because you may have weighed some options and narrowed down to one whereas some are still figuring out what might work best for them. Otherwise, anyone studying Applied Physics, Computing, and Engineering should feel free to enroll in the doctoral program for students pursuing higher studies.
You will have the opportunity to work in different fields such as applied physics, information technology, mathematics, electricity, electronics, mechanical or civil engineering, accelerator instrumentation, and materials science, etc., at CERN; safety and environmental protection, science communication, surveying, ultra-high vacuum are few examples.
