In order to strengthen the cooperation and exchanges between the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and to provide CUHK research students with internship opportunities at the top scientific and research bases in China, The China Engagement Office joined hand with CAS to launch a new research internship programme, named “CAS-CUHK Research Internship Programme in Major Scientific Research Infrastructure”. This programme intends to recruit CUHK full-time PhD students, mainly from the Faculty of Science and Faculty of Engineering, with priority given to students from Hong Kong, Macao and the Mainland. This brand-new internship opportunity allows research students to gain work experience in top national scientific research bases to enhance their research capability and broaden their horizons.
