2025 Swiss Summer Student Particle Physics Program (S3P3) in Switzerland
The Swiss Summer Student Program is organized by the particle physics groups of ETH Zurich, the University of Zurich, EPFL, the University of Geneva and the University of Bern.
It is supported by the Swiss Institute of Particle Physics (CHIPP) and the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT). The program will allow students to work on detector development or perform data analysis in particle physics.
We cover different topics, from research on exotic atoms – where particle physics, atomic physics and quantum optics meet – to research on neutrino, flavour and high-energy physics, dark matter searches and astroparticle physics.
Selected students will contribute to the upgrade of different detectors and/or analysing data with the use of machine learning techniques. Students will spend nine weeks at ETH Zurich, the University of Zurich, the University of Bern (possibly FERMILAB), EPFL and the University of Geneva.
Scope of the Program
The Swiss Summer Student Program is supported by the Swiss Institute of Particle Physics (CHIPP) and the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT).
It allows International students to work on a Research project for 9 Weeks. Participants will spend 9 weeks at 5 Universities in Switzerland:
- ETH Zurich
- University of Zurich
- University of Bern
