Call for 2021/22 Pawsey Summer Interns – open now!

We invite students ready to challenge themselves to apply to the 2021/2022 Pawsey Summer Internship Program.

The 2021/2022 Pawsey Summer Internship Program seeks enthusiastic 3rd year – Master’s students to commit to giving their best to this 10-week Program. In return, the Program offers students a paid internship focused on building skills and experience in computational science and research projects.

The Program

The Internship Program lasts for 10 weeks during the approximated timeframe 22 November 2021 – 11 February 2022.

During this time, interns work alongside national and/or international supervisors and collaborators.

Interns will also learn from Pawsey staff about good practices of using Pawsey resources, good practices for video and poster creation & presentation, techniques for scientific communication, and more.

The Internship program includes (virtual) induction trainings. Through these trainings, interns will learn more about supercomputing, data management and scientific visualization. With the support of Intern Mentors, interns will also form a Community of Practice with other interns.
