ITER Post-Graduate Program opens

A new initiative from the ITER Organization offers early-career professionals a valuable opportunity to gain hands-on experience through structured 24-month assignments. Several positions are currently open, with applications accepted until 17 May.

The ITER Post-Graduate Program is designed for recent graduates holding engineering or Master’s degrees, with no more than two years of professional experience (excluding internships). It is ideal for those looking to strengthen their technical foundations while developing professional skills alongside leading experts in their field.

Participants will undertake 24-month assignments at the ITER site in southern France, with the possibility of extension for up to an additional 24 months. The program offers:

  • A defined role with clear objectives and deliverables
  • Onboarding and integration support
  • Mentoring and professional guidance
  • Learning and training opportunities aligned with the assignment
  • Regular feedback and progress reviews 

Applications must be submitted online through the ITER Open Positions webpage, where positions are currently advertised in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and information technology. The selection process aims to not only fill these positions, but also to establish a roster of qualified candidates for future vacancies.

Applicants must hold a valid passport from one of the ITER Members: China, the European Union, India, Japan, Korea, the Russian Federation, or the United States.
