Department of Theoretical Physics, IFIN-HH

Summer internships

The Geometry and Physics group occasionally opens internship positions (usually during the summer period) for Physics students of the University of Bucharest. Participants who hold a Bachelor of Science can apply for an internship with our group by contacting the supervisor mentioned in the internship announcement and can be employed temporarily by the Department of Theoretical Physics of the Horia Hulubei Institute during the internship's duration. The internship ends with a written report (in LaTeX) authored by the intern about the subject studied during the temporary employment period and an evaluation of that report by the intern's supervisor. All temporary employment in DTP must be approved by the Head of Department and by the Department Council. To apply, students should send (by email) the following documents to the relevant internship supervisor:

1. A copy of the Bachelor Degree Diploma

2. A recent CV

3. An up-to date copy of the current academic transcript (in pdf format)

4. Proof that they are enrolled in the MS Degree program of University of Bucharest

5. A standard passport photo,

together with a brief description of their research interests and their motivation for wishing to gain work experience within the Geometry and Physics group in the subject relevant to the internship position for which they apply.

Note: Students of University of Bucharest can provide a pdf copy of the Bachelor certificate obtained from the Secretariat of the their department (instead of the official Bachelor Diploma) and a pdf version of their academic transcript obtained from the online system of the university when applying for an internship to a member of our group. However, they will have to provide a copy of the official academic transcript (which can be obtained from the Rector's Office) to the DTP Head of Department if they wish to be hired temporarily by the Department of Theoretical Physics of IFIN-HH during the period of the internship.

Internship positions will be announced on this page (as well as on the Internships Page of the Department) when they become available.

Working as an intern within the Geometry and Physics group is recommended before applying for MS or PhD degree supervision by a senior member of the group.
