About the Institute of Computing for Climate Science (ICCS)
Computational modelling is key to climate science, but models are becoming increasingly complex as we seek to understand our world in more depth and model it at higher fidelity. The Institute of Computing for Climate Science studies and supports the role of software engineering, computer science, artificial intelligence, and data science within climate science.
The institute comprises a collaboration between Cambridge Zero, the Departments of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (host department of the institute), Computer Science and Technology, and University Information Services at the University of Cambridge.
Internship Opportunities
For summer 2025, we are looking to recruit four interns to join the ICCS team. Two will work on research projects under the supervision of an ICCS postdoctoral researcher with the third will working on a collaboration between the ICCS and the Centre for Landscape Regeneration (CLR). The final intern will work with the Executive Director and Programme Manager of ICCS in a Science Communications role. See the Projects page for more information.
