ETH Student Summer Research Fellowship
The ETH Student Summer Research Fellowship (ETH SSRF) programme offers undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to gain their first research experience in an area of their choice. The fellowship provided by the Computer Science Department of ETH takes place during two summer months and is open to all students worldwide, except for students enrolled at ETH Zurich. The department is committed to increasing diversity in the computer science area.
Research opportunities are available in the following areas:
Marina, SSRF Student:
"My mentors gave me a chance to try out my own research ideas."
Gokul, SSRF Student:
"My peers were a major highlight of the fellowship."
Prof. Markus Püschel, Head of the ETH SSRF programme:
"We aim to offer students both a real research experience and an exciting time in our beautiful country."

How randomness tames vast network problems
ETH Zurich computer scientists are turning theoretical breakthroughs into practical software capable of solving network problems that were previously beyond reach. Led by Rasmus Kyng, they have dramatically accelerated the analysis of vast networks by harnessing carefully designed randomness.
Twelve top research projects win millions in European funding
ETH Zurich and its researchers are among some of the biggest winners of this year’s ERC Advanced Grants: twelve researchers have been awarded the prestigious EU funding. Among the recipients are three researchers from the Department of Computer Science: Srdjan Capkun, Adrian Perrig and Bernhard Häupler. In total, the university will receive 31.5 million euros in funding.
What skills do people need to successfully program with AI?
The new trend of “vibe coding” allows people to program software without writing a single line of code. Now, a new study by ETH Zurich has shown that users who want to develop apps and programs successfully with AI need not only a capacity for clear written expression, but also a basic knowledge of computer science.
