An oral defense takes place in early June. The internship may be extended until August 31 in order to transition directly into the thesis. Topics cover a broad spectrum ranging from theoretical physics (cosmology, particle physics, and astroparticle physics) to experimental physics (LHC experiments, the search for gravitational waves or dark matter, large-field cosmological surveys, etc.).
