S-cubic Program

Internship Candidate Recruitment

Center for Advanced Human Resource Education and Development (S-cubic) is promoting a corporate Internship support program for Hokkaido University DC and PD students.

For young DC and PD researchers considering working in corporate R&D as a career in the (near) future, I think that Internship experience at an actual company will be of great significance. You can experience corporate R&D work by seeing the actual workplace and interacting with senior employees. Companies are increasingly hiring PhDs these days, and Internship experience is also recommended.

We will not only help you with Internship companies are publicly recruiting for, but also help you make contact with the companies of your choice. We do not cover all expenses, but we also have a system in place to support part of your travel and accommodation costs. Why not take advantage of this opportunity to apply? Applications are accepted from D1.
