Join Roche Continents

Every year, professors from a wide range of European institutions are invited to nominate their most talented students. They will share a link for the application form and further instructions with their nominees. Upon review of applications by a designated committee, 40 students are selected to participate in the programme.

Who is eligible
  • Undergraduate students, graduate students, doctoral candidates or post-doctoral researchers from a science or art discipline at European institutions

  • Students must be 20-29 years old before the start of the programme

  • Students are nominated by a professor 

  • Students must be available for the duration of the whole programme (no-part time attendance possible)
