FollowNERSC Summer Internships
Every summer, NERSC hosts paid student researchers to participate in a range of science and computing research projects. The program is now taking applications from interested graduate and undergraduate students for summer 2025.
Eligibility
Applicants must be U.S.-based students actively enrolled in undergraduate or graduate programs. NERSC mentors determine the required qualifications and skills, which vary from project to project.
Compensation
For direct hires through Berkeley Lab, undergraduate students’ hourly wages range from $18.67 to $48.27, depending on the years of education completed. Applicants are responsible for housing and travel expenses. We are unable to provide additional housing support.
How to Apply
There are a number of pathways and programs to pursue summer research at Berkeley Lab. However, most of NERSC’s summer interns are hired directly by the Lab. You must be employed through one of these programs and be accepted by the project’s mentor(s) to do research at NERSC. Please refer to our list of summer research projects for details.
