The ICTP PWF: Physics for Bangladesh Online Summer Internship is designed to acquaint
students across Bangladesh with advanced research topics in physics and mathematics. It is open
only to Bangladeshi students currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program in
Bangladesh, as well as recent graduates, provided they meet the prerequisites for their chosen
