Contenido de trabajo

Imagine getting involved in work that is changing the world and imagine doing it before you’ve left university. Imagine working in an international environment and having a great quality of life.

Take part in CERN’s Administrative Student Programme!

There’s no better way to learn than on-the-job. When that job happens to be in a world-famous organisation and centre of scientific excellence, even better. If you’re an undergraduate in Administration and are looking for a practical training period or a place to complete your final project, you could spend 2 to 12 months at CERN during the course of your studies (Bachelor or Master).If your university requires or encourages you to acquire work experience through an internship, imagine doing this at CERN in Geneva.

It could be in any of the following disciplines: translation, human resources, advanced secretarial work, business administration, logistics, law, finance, accounting, library and information science, engineering management, science communication, education, audiovisual, communication and public relations, psychology, audit are but a fewexamples of the many domains in which successful applicants will learn and contribute their knowledge.

A panel of CERN experts meets three times a year in February, June and October, to review all applications, andtypically around 50 students are selected to join the programme annually.

In order to qualify for a place on the programme you will need to meet the following requirements:

• You are a national of a CERN Member or Associate Member State.
• You should have completed at least 18 months of your undergraduate studies (Bachelor or Master’s)specializing in an administrative field at the time of the next student committee taking placein October 2022
• You remain registered as a full-time student during the internship.
• You have a good knowledge of English orFrench.

Please note that in case you are studying in aSTEM/engineering field, you are not eligible to apply for this position. Instead, please consider applying for the CERN Technical Student programme.

• A contract of association from 2to 12 months.
