The Great Minds initiative is a competition for 3 to 6-month internships at one of the IBM Research Labs in Zurich,Nairobi or Johannesburg for students from central and eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa. It provides students with the unique opportunity to work alongside world-class scientists in the leading industrial IT research organization.
The internships will take place in 2019. The exact starting time and duration will be agreed upon with the winning students individually, taking into account their academic commitments and the availability of IBM staff.
IBM will pay the winners a lump sum towards travel expenses as well as compensation that covers adequately the cost of living in Switzerland, Kenya or South Africa, respectively. IBM will also obtain the necessary visa and work permits for the successful candidates.
IBM Research has been conducting the Great Minds internships for more than a decade. The experiences on both sides have been very positive. This program also benefits faculty members when the Great Minds winners bring back to their universities or departments a valuable understanding of real industry problems, knowledge of advanced IBM technologies, and contacts throughout IBM Research.
New! AI for Social Good
We are experiencing an era when everything that surrounds us is captured digitally. This wealth of data offers an unprecedented opportunity to change the world for the better. From reducing or eliminating inequalities, to improving access to healthcare and education, to reducing pollution and our carbon footprint, the opportunities are endless. Two additional Great Minds 2019 projects are focused on addressing these topics using artificial intelligence.
