The Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology has announced that it is accepting applications for its Summer Internship Programme 2026. Through this programme, Masters students will get a chance to leave classrooms and do research in actual research settings. The internship is of duration 2 to 3 months and is not an ordinary academic exercise rather it is a focused and practical experience.Those students who are selected will have to spend 2-3 months working with scientists and helping in their research projects. Interns won’t only be watching; instead, they will realize how scientific ideas are tested, data is analysed, and scientific problems are studied in a top research institute.
Who is it for?
The programme is aimed at Master’s students, especially those studying subjects connected to climate science, atmospheric studies, and related fields. It’s not a broad, open-entry opportunity, candidates with strong academic records and a genuine interest in research are more likely to stand out.
What makes it valuable
What sets this internship apart is the level of involvement. Students are expected to actively participate, not just assist. They get mentorship from experienced researchers and a clearer sense of what a career in science actually looks like beyond the classroom.

- Fill out the application carefully
