careers

The CogNeS doctoral programme was founded on two pillars: interdisciplinarity and internationalisation. We train PhD students to conduct independent research at the intersection of various disciplines. We strongly encourage PhD students to apply for grants from external funding agencies (such as the National Science Centre and National Agency for Academic Exchange).

INTERNSHIPS

internship

Our internship and volunteering opportunities are aimed at students (especially, but not exclusively, in psychology and related fields) who wish to gain hands-on experience in brain research and get to know the scientific environment from a practical perspective. We do not require prior research experience—what matters most is your curiosity and a willingness to learn.

If you are interested in an internship or other forms of collaboration, please fill out the application form. A response will be sent by the end of the month in which you apply. The link to the form can be found here:
