How to Apply

You can apply for the King's Summer Research Programmes by either by applying for an existing project or by devising your own research project with the aid of a suitable supervisor. All proposals must last 6 - 10 weeks and you must be based in Cambridge for the duration of the project, even if the project can be completed remotely.

During Lent Term, King’s Fellows and College Research Associates have devised a series of projects that will present students with an insight into a range of research skills in an area that complements or extends their own research interests. The full list of selected projects are available via the Open Placements page and there is an online application form below for you to complete.

If you would like to submit your own project, please discuss this with a potential supervisor in the first instance - your supervisor should be a King's Fellow, College Research Associate or another University academic. If there is any doubt about the suitability of a potential supervisor, please enquire using the address below. When you have discussed it, please complete the online application form below.

Applications for students will open on 4 March and close on 1 April 2024, with decisions communicated to students in early April.

Should you have any questions about the schemes, please contact ct505@cam.ac.uk.
