Possible dates of placement
Summer Students may have a placement at CERN for a period ranging between eight weeks minimum and thirteen weeks maximum. Students for the Non-Member State Programme will have a contract for a period of eight weeks. Below you will find the possible dates for the summer of 2022, depending on the length of your placement.
Most of the organized activities (lectures, visits, workshops) take place in July and August. The 5-week lecture programme will start on (TBC) Tuesday 28 June 2022 and will end on Friday 29 July (please note that placement starting on July 4th does not cover the entire lecture programme). We strongly recommend choosing the period that covers the whole lecture programme.
Please note that Summer Student contracts always start on a Monday and end on a Friday (*Exception is Tuesday 7 June, as Monday 6 June 2022 is an official holiday at CERN.)
