Student Cohort

Hands-on deep tech experience for the next generation

Become a Co-Creator at PSI

The Student Cohort is a 10-12 week immersive program designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students from any academic stream. It bridges the gap between classroom learning and real-world deep tech impact.

As a cohort member, you will work closely with PSI's teams to investigate frontier challenges, test emerging tools, and shape narratives that define the future of science-led innovation. The program is fully virtual with 2 in-person sessions per month, requiring just 3-5 hours per week.
