The CSIRO Undergraduate Vacation Studentships provide high-performing undergraduate students with hands-on research experience during the Australian summer holidays (November to February). Participants engage in real-world science and technology projects across various disciplines alongside CSIRO researchers in world-class facilities. The program lasts 8-12 weeks during standard business hours, offering mentoring, skill development, and potential course credit through Work Integrated Learning plans. Students receive a stipend (amount not specified on official page) and, in some cases, contributions toward travel and accommodation costs. At the end, participants present their outcomes to peers, mentors, and leadership.
