CSIRO Undergraduate Vacation Studentships

The CSIRO Undergraduate Vacation Studentships are short research placements for high-performing undergraduate students conducted during the Australian summer holidays. Students work on real-world science and related projects alongside CSIRO research staff in CSIRO facilities, typically for 8 to 12 weeks. Placements include mentoring, the possibility of work-integrated-learning credit, and opportunities to present project outcomes. A stipend is provided and in some cases contributions towards travel and accommodation may be available.
