Eligibility Criteria for Max Planck Internship Program

To be considered for the Max Planck Internship, the following conditions are to be noted:

Internships are open to exceptional Bachelors, Masters, and Doctoral students worldwide with a basic background in Computer Science (roughly, the first three years of a standard Computer Science Bachelors program by the start of the internship) and an interest in CS research. Internship projects are customized to suit the backgrounds of individual interns.
Industry applicants with a similar background and an interest in academic CS research may also apply.
Students looking for Bachelor’s or Master’s thesis projects are also welcome to apply. The internship project can be converted to a thesis if the student’s university allows.
Internships are also an excellent opportunity for pre-doctoral students to explore computer science research prior to embarking on a research career.
We encourage applicants with diverse academic backgrounds and interdisciplinary interests, e.g. intersecting social science, economics, law, humanities, and others.
We particularly welcome applications from individuals belonging to underrepresented groups in CS or other STEM fields.
Our internships are very competitive and all applicants are expected to have an excellent academic record, regardless of its length.
