Cisco welcomes the opportunity to foster research and employment opportunities for graduate students. Students represent the future of research and bring their leading edge experience and enthusiasm to Cisco. Internships are available for students each summer. Full-time employment opportunities through the Cisco Choice hiring program are available through on-campus interviews.

For US-based doctoral students and post-docs, please consider the "Cisco Choice Select" program for internships and full-time hires.

Professors and colleagues may make student referrals here.

The Cisco Research Center (CRC) is dedicated to matching researchers to Cisco engineers – and vice versa – to foster research relationships. To develop relationships, researchers are invited to give talks at Cisco, participate in research symposia, and propose research projects which are considered for funding.
