Hudson Institute\u2019s student vacation placement program is designed to give undergraduate and Honour students experience in an area of research and an insight into future career opportunities, while receiving support from a scholarship payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The placement is full time for four to eight weeks. The exact length can be negotiated between the student and their supervisor. Applicants nominate one of three available intake start dates between November and January. The placements are not intended to support the employment of students for routine work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
