Training Program
It is not a conventional classroom lectures based training program. Instead, each selected candidate/trainee will be assigned to a CCMB staff scientist who will supervise/mentor him/her during the stay. Each student is expected to execute a small project work under the guidance of the scientist. At the end of the program, student will need to submit a ‘Project Report’ of the work done, and also would be required to make an oral presentation.
The program is mainly intended to give students a real-time exposure/handson experience to a research environment, in the hope that it would inculcate in them a zeal for research as a future career.
Although, efforts are made to take into consideration the ‘statement of purpose’/research interest of the selected students (while assigning to different Scientists), but it is generally not possible in many cases; as the allotments are mainly based on the availability of working place(s) in different labs and not the other way around. Therefore, only those students should apply for the training program, who are ready to work in any lab in CCMB, if selected, irrespective of his/her stated research interest.
Application for the Summer Program 2013 can be down loaded (Zipped pdf file). Completed application (Hard copy) for the program MUST reach CCMB by the first Monday of February 2013 (4/2/2013). The names of the Selected candidates will be made available on CCMB
homepage during the second week of April 2013 (after 15/4/2013); here, it may be noted that no separate intimation will be sent to any candidate, and thus all applicants must look for his/her name in the ‘selection list’ on CCMB homepage only.
Last date for selected candidates to inform their Acceptance to CCMB/Program Coordinator 20th April 2013
Tentative date to join CCMB/the program 10-15th May 2013
