EU Funded Industrial PhD Internships in Timișoara

As a partner within the HiPEAC consortium, the Dublin/Timișoara/San Mateo-located Movidius is aiming to welcome a number of up to 20 PhD students in their Industrial PhD Internships positions in 2016.

HiPEAC program enables European companies to have access to highly skilled and exceptionally motivated research talent. Doctoral students in European universities, trained to conduct applied research, have proven themselves to be an invaluable resource for R&D projects in program member companies, particularly in SMEs.

PhD Students can apply until April 8 for a PhD Internship that offers unique opportunities to experience the industrial research environment and to work on R&D projects solving real problems. To date, the internship programme has resulted in several joint paper publications, patent applications and many students have been hired by the host companies after completion of their PhDs.

The internships will cover a 3-month period and will ensure for each student a payment of EUR 5000 plus coverage of travel expenses to an extent of maximum EUR 500.

To be eligible to apply for the HiPEAC Industrial PhD Internship Programme the interested persons must be currently studying for a PhD at a European HiPEAC network comprising more than 100 universities in about 40 countries. Four Romanian universities are already enrolled in HiPEAC: Gheorghe Asachi Technical University Iași, Politehnica University of Timisoara, Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, University of Sibiu. New universities can join HiPEAC in a straightforward way starting from here.

The full list with the 20 internships announced by Movidius can be found here.

Good luck and see you in Timișoara!
