Welcome to the CERN openlab Summer Student information and registration page!

This is the page where you will be able to find useful information to make your stay as easy and joyful as possible. Please take a moment to read it as it contains a lot of useful information, some of it might be updated later on.

It is important that  you fill out the registration carefully, making sure that you spell your name as it is written in your passport. 

The information given will be used to issue invitation letters for visa and pre-paid cards for your subsistence. Full information on how we use your personal data can be found in the menu of the information page.

It is upon you to check whether you need a visa or not and ask for this when you register.

Travel to and from Geneva must be booked and paid by yourself. You will receive a flat rate travel allowance with your last subsistence based on your home station (it typically covers the cost of an economy return ticket). The travel allowance is paid with your last subsistence.

Your first subsistence will be paid to you during your first contractual week.
