Internships
The IAEA accepts a limited number of interns each year. The internships are awarded to persons studying towards a university degree or who have recently received a degree (see Internship web pages for further details).
- The purpose of the programme is:
- To provide interns with the opportunity to gain practical work experience in line with their studies or interests, and expose them to the work of the IAEA and the United Nations as a whole;
- To benefit the IAEA's programmes through the assistance of qualified students specialized in various professional fields.
- The duration of an internship is normally not less than three months and not more than one year.
Organizational Setting
The Department of Nuclear Sciences and Applications implements the IAEA's Major Programme 2, "Nuclear Techniques for Development and Environmental Protection". This Major Programme comprises individual programmes on food and agriculture, human health, water resources, environment and radiation technologies. These programmes are supported by laboratories in Seibersdorf, Monaco and Vienna. The Major Programme's objective is to enhance the capacity of Member States to meet basic human needs and to assess and manage the marine and terrestrial environments through the use of nuclear and isotopic techniques in sustainable development programmes.
The Division of Physical and Chemical Sciences is responsible for assisting and advising Member States in research and development for the nuclear sciences, especially the physical and chemical sciences. Specifically, the Division provides support to Member States in the following fields: production of radioisotopes and radiolabelled products for applications in health care and industry; radiation source applications; research reactor utilization; applications of accelerators and nuclear instrumentation; nuclear and atomic data for applications; controlled nuclear fusion and isotope hydrology and geochemistry.
The Isotope Hydrology Section is responsible for planning and implementing the IAEA's water resources programme. The programme assists Member States in the sustainable management of all aspects of their water resources, but with a particular focus on isotope hydrology. Major activities include internationally coordinated research, global isotope monitoring, capacity building, and technical assistance to Member States to help them with the assessment, development and use of water resources. The Section also operates a well-equipped laboratory for the analysis of stable and radioactive isotopes. The laboratory trains counterparts in using analytical techniques for high-quality measurements of isotopes in water samples.
Main Purpose
The objective of this internship is to support the Isotope Hydrology Section in enhancing isotope data acquisition and integration. This involves close collaboration with experts and stakeholders to improve the quality and application of isotope data in hydrological studies.
The main purpose of the internship is to gain knowledge and training in advanced isotope hydrology techniques. The intern will assist in the acquisition and integration of isotope data, working alongside experienced professionals and stakeholders. This role will involve contributing to the development of innovative methodologies and ensuring the effective use of isotope data in various research projects. By participating in this internship, the intern will enhance the section's capacity to achieve its research objectives and support the broader goals of the hydrological research program.
Functions / Key Results Expected
- Collaborate with the professional staff of the Section to compile and identify existing isotope data for integration into the data compilation project.
- Support the review and enhancement of the IAEA WISER database to facilitate effective data management and integration.
- Participate in quality control processes by working with experts to ensure data integrity and accuracy.
- Contribute to the preparation of project documentation, including reports on achievements, challenges, and lessons learned throughout the project lifecycle.
Qualifications and Experience
- University degree in Hydrology, Environmental Science, Earth Science, Geology, or a related field. Pursuing or holding a master’s degree in the above fields is an asset.
Applicant Eligibility
- Candidates must be a minimum of 20 years of age and have completed at least three years of full-time studies at a university or equivalent institution towards the completion of a first degree.
