AAP - "NEXT" and "CHEM-IA" Master's internship grants from the Chemistry cluster
The Chemistry research cluster is launching NEXT 2026 and CHEM-IA 2026 calls for projects to fund 16 Master 2 internships in 2026.

Context
As part of its Long-Term Thematic Projects (LTP), the Chemistry Research Cluster is launching a call for "NEXT 2026" projects to fund 12 Master 2 internships. Two themes are concerned: CHIMENE ("CHIMie durable pour l'ENErgie"), which will fund projects in the fields of energy and the environment, and CARLA ("Chimie durAble pouR La SAnté"), which will fund projects in the fields of health and the environment, with sustainable development at the heart of their scientific approach.
At the same time, the Chemistry Research Cluster, in partnership with CEA/ISEC - Marcoule, is launching its first call for projects, "CHEM-IA 2026", which aims to award 4 Master 2 internship grants specifically geared towards the application of artificial intelligence methods to chemistry-related issues.
Objective
The aim of these calls for proposals is to fund 5-6 month Master 2 (or 3rd year engineering) internships in priority scientific areas, up to a maximum of €5,000 for 2026.
- AAP NEXT - CARLA: DurAble Chemistry for health (6 internship grants)
- AAP NEXT - CHIMENE: Sustainable Chemistry for Energy (6 internship grants)
- AAP CHEM-IA: Artificial intelligence in chemistry (4 internship grants)
Procedure
You can download the documents corresponding to each call here:
- instructions (eligibility requirements, terms and conditions, procedure) and,
- the funding application form (unique to the three AAPs).
Please note that applicants must complete the application form and send it to the e-mail address given in the leaflet.
We thank you in advance for your proposals, which will contribute to the scientific reputation of the Chemistry research cluster and the success of these strategic initiatives.
