Who can apply for MasterClass @ CERN?

MasterClass @ CERN is open to Indian students in Grades 9 to 12. The main qualifying criteria are curiosity and a genuine passion to learn about science.

Where does the programme take place?

The programme takes place at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland — the world's largest particle physics laboratory and home of the Large Hadron Collider.

What makes MasterClass @ CERN unique?

Students get a rare opportunity to interact with Nobel Laureates, tour CERN facilities including the Large Hadron Collider, run hands-on experiments, and receive an official CERN programme certificate. It is delivered exclusively in India by UniConsult.

Do students receive a certificate?

Yes. Every student receives an official international programme certificate from CERN for academic enrichment, which strengthens school and university applications.

Before you apply

Common questions

Is registering a commitment?

No. This is an expression of interest. You're simply asking us to hold a place while you learn more. Nothing is confirmed until you book a batch.

How many students per batch?

Each batch is deliberately small — 11 students plus 1 nominated teacher — so students work closely with CERN scientists. This is also why places are limited.

Are flights included in the fees?

No — international flights from India to Geneva are separate. UniConsult coordinates group flight options so families travel together.

Can the fees be paid in instalments?

No — we require full payment of the programme fee at the time of booking. A student's place is confirmed only once payment has been received in full.

Who is the programme for?

Indian students in Grades 9–12 with curiosity and a passion to learn. There's no requirement to be a top physics student — interest matters more than marks.
