NOTE TO EDITORS

Charpak scholarships: The Charpak scholarship programme, run by the Embassy of France in India, is named after French physicist and Nobel Prize winner Georges Charpak (1924-2010). He served in the French Resistance during World War II and was deported to the Dachau Nazi concentration camp when he was 20 years old. Charpak survived and, at age 30, received a PhD in Nuclear Physics. His later findings significantly advanced civil nuclear engineering and biomedicine. After receiving his Nobel Prize in Physics in 1992, Charpak became a tireless advocate of the hands-on approach in science in elementary schools. His work lives on in tens of thousands of classrooms in France today.



The Charpak programme offers three types of scholarship at Bachelor’s and Master’s levels:

Research Internship Programme
This scholarship programme is offered to students of economics, engineering and science background at the Bachelor’s or Master’s levels who plan to undertake an internship at a French laboratory during their academic break (May to July).

This scholarship supports exchange students for a period of one to four months (duration of an academic semester) at the Bachelor’s or Master’s degree levels.
