Application and Selection
The selection of participants is performed in two steps: First, around 120 preselected students (out of 1000+) are chosen based on the documents they provided (see below). In the second phase, the final decisions are taken by the host companies.
The first selection is performed by judging the following documents, which are required for the application:
- application form
- Curriculum Vitae
- motivation letter
- recommendation letter (written by a professor)
- all the grades obtained at the university
- university grading system
The most critical information contained in the above list of documents is the student's international profile, motivation and technical skills.
After the first selection is performed, the students are given a list of host companies out of which they may pick one or two - one being already chosen by the judging board. Then the applicant must write a dedicated motivation letter for each of these host companies, which will be sent directly to the human resource department of the host company. These companies perform the final selection.

Famous quotes containing the words application and/or selection:
“Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
—Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)
“Judge Ginsburg’s selection should be a model—chosen on merit and not ideology, despite some naysaying, with little advance publicity. Her treatment could begin to overturn a terrible precedent: that is, that the most terrifying sentence among the accomplished in America has become, “Honey—the White House is on the phone.””
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
