Overview
École Polytechnique’s research units welcome students from other institutions wishing to put into practise the technical and scientific knowledge acquired in their studies.
Details
HOME
A research internship is a research activity that is an integral part of a visiting student’s academic program at the home institution.
Each year, Polytechnique’s research units welcome more than 250 students from other institutions wishing to put into practice the technical and scientific knowledge acquired in their studies.
The research conducted is supervised by a professor of Polytechnique and is always related to needs expressed by society or companies, and can be made in laboratories or sometimes in situ.
DURATION
The internship can start and end at any period of the year and must last a minimum of 4 months. However, other durations can be negotiated directly with the professors but shall not exceed 12 months.
The internship cannot start before the reception of the official letter of invitation from Polytechnique Montréal’s hosting department and of the Canadian work permit provided by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). As visa and work permit application process may take several months, candidates must apply for their internship soon enough to respect the processing delays of the Canadian Visa Office their region is attached to.
