Started in 2019, we will continue again this year the successful series of CMIT summer research internships. The internship is open for all Maths UG students (primarily year-1 and year-2 students) who are interested in data science and optimization problems and would like to gain hands-on research experience with cutting edge deep learning techniques. Candidates should ideally have some Python or Matlab experience, some background in data science is a plus but not required. We arrange for several training courses at the start of the internship.
For info, in 2022, about 30 students started the Part 1 courses and 12 have finished a project in Part 2 (including two placed in City University of HK and one participant from USA); the latter received a CMIT certificate.
The internship will run in the time between June and August 2024. For each participant, a minimum, but flexible, time commitment of 4 weeks is expected in addition to taking part in the online lectures (unless you are fluent with PyTorch and TensorFlow). Although the internship is unpaid the possibility exists for exceptional candidates to be nominated for the EPSRC Vacation Internship (Bursary fund) scheme or the City University of Hong Kong Summer Internship (Exchange) scheme.
