A research internship is a research activity that is an integral part of a visiting student’s academic program at the home institution.

Each year, Polytechnique’s research units welcome more than 250 students from other institutions wishing to put into practice the technical and scientific knowledge acquired in their studies.

The research conducted is supervised by a professor of Polytechnique and is always related to needs expressed by society or companies, and can be made in laboratories or sometimes in situ.
