The Great Minds initiative is a competition for 3 to 6-month
internships at IBM Research in Zurich and Haifa for students from
central and eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa. It provides
students with the unique opportunity to work alongside
world-class scientists in the leading industrial IT research
organization.
The internships will take place in 2013. The exact starting time and duration will be agreed upon with the winning students individually, taking into account their academic commitments and the availability of IBM staff. IBM will pay the winners a lump sum towards travel expenses as well as compensation that covers adequately the cost of living in Switzerland or in Israel, respectively. IBM will also obtain the necessary visa and work permits for the successful candidates.
IBM Research is conducting the Great Minds internships for the sixth time. The experiences on both sides have been very positive. This program also benefits faculty members when the Great Minds winners bring back to their universities or departments a valuable understanding of real industry problems, knowledge of advanced IBM technologies, and contacts throughout IBM Research.
