Thank you for your advice!jedishrfu said:I think your best bet is to scour the web looking for internships or summer programs in those areas. I would also poke around the school departments asking profs, looking at bulletin boards etc.
One thing to be aware of is that students usually do this search starting in January as doing it now may be too late.
An alternative would be to look for courses in these areas and to then contact the profs asking about opportunities. Of course you could take the too but I guess the scholarship wouldn’t apply?
While PF is a great resource, I don’t think we’ll be able to help in this matter.
Does the Erasmus scholarship have anyone you can talk to? Someone familiar with what other students have done in the past? Is there a discussion site where students share their experiences?
Thank you, you helped me a lot!Valeriia Lukashenko said:Look at Anton Pannekoek Institute (astronomy/astrophysics), Nikhef (they have both computation and astroparticle research) and CWI (computational science, informatics, mathematics)
An Erasmus Internship in Europe for Computational Physics & Astrophysics is a program that allows students to gain hands-on experience in the fields of computational physics and astrophysics through an internship in a European country. It is part of the Erasmus+ program, which aims to enhance international cooperation and promote learning opportunities for students.
Eligibility for this program varies depending on the specific requirements of the institution offering the internship. Generally, students who are enrolled in a higher education institution and have a background in physics or a related field are eligible. Some institutions may also have specific requirements for language proficiency and academic performance.
The duration of an Erasmus Internship can range from 2 months to 12 months, depending on the agreement between the sending and receiving institutions. However, the average duration is usually around 4-6 months. Students can also apply for a shorter or longer duration, depending on their needs and the availability of the internship.
Yes, students participating in the Erasmus+ program can receive financial support to help cover travel and living expenses during their internship. The amount of financial support varies depending on the country of destination and the duration of the internship. Students should check with their sending institution for more information on the financial support available.
The language requirements for an Erasmus Internship depend on the specific institution offering the internship. Some institutions may require a certain level of proficiency in the language of the host country, while others may offer internships in English. It is important for students to check the language requirements before applying for an internship.
