Careers at ICANN
Mission
We help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global Internet
To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
Opportunity Is Part of Our DNA
ICANN was formed more than 25 years ago to ensure all voices could participate in shaping the Internet. This model has defined us, and we live by the idea that bringing together a range of experience and backgrounds is the most effective and meaningful way to serve ICANN’s mission. Within the organization, we strive to create an environment where we all respect, support, value, and celebrate each other.
ICANN is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer and does not discriminate based on age, race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, marital status, veteran status, physical or mental disability, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), childbirth or related medical conditions, family care status, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law. Employment decisions are based on individual qualifications, merit, and organization needs.
Work Culture
Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do
ICANN’s work culture energizes all of us. It’s not something we simply write and talk about; it is something we feel. We know that creating and sustaining a positive work culture is a critical part of our success. It impacts everything, from team morale to our work with our stakeholders. Each team member plays an important role in building, improving, and growing our culture.
When our team members wake up in the morning, and log on, or arrive at the office, they know that they are part of something bigger, something extraordinary. No other organization in the world does what ICANN does. It’s a place for people who care about fostering meaningful connections and collaboration, and committing to shared values.

Academia and ICANN: Building the Future of the Internet Together
Academia has played a foundational role in the development and stewardship of the Internet. ICANN continues to rely on the expertise, research, and talent of the academic community to inform and strengthen its work on Internet governance, technical coordination, and policy development. From classroom learning to high-level research, the academic sector is a key partner in supporting ICANN and its Mission.
Engaging with ICANN offers academics, including students, educators, and researchers, a chance to contribute to Internet-related work that has real global impact. As technology evolves, ICANN increasingly relies on academics to contribute to the ICANN community and help inform its work. Contributing to the ICANN community as an academic means taking part in meaningful dialogue, accessing global platforms, networking with industry leaders, and contributing to the future of a secure, stable and interoperable Internet.
How it Works
ICANN's Global Academic Engagement program is designed to forge lasting connections with students, researchers, and academic institutions worldwide. Our goals are to:
Promote understanding of ICANN's mission
and the Internet's unique identifier systems.
Develop future leaders
through training, mentorship, and participation in ICANN's multistakeholder model.
Support the integration of Internet governance
topics into academic curricula.
Encourage academic research
aligned with ICANN's mission.

Domain Name System
Internationalized Domain Name ,IDN,"IDNs are domain names that include characters used in the local representation of languages that are not written with the twenty-six letters of the basic Latin alphabet ""a-z"". An IDN can contain Latin letters with diacritical marks, as required by many European languages, or may consist of characters from non-Latin scripts such as Arabic or Chinese. Many languages also use other types of digits than the European ""0-9"". The basic Latin alphabet together with the European-Arabic digits are, for the purpose of domain names, termed ""ASCII characters"" (ASCII = American Standard Code for Information Interchange). These are also included in the broader range of ""Unicode characters"" that provides the basis for IDNs. The ""hostname rule"" requires that all domain names of the type under consideration here are stored in the DNS using only the ASCII characters listed above, with the one further addition of the hyphen ""-"". The Unicode form of an IDN therefore requires special encoding before it is entered into the DNS. The following terminology is used when distinguishing between these forms: A domain name consists of a series of ""labels"" (separated by ""dots""). The ASCII form of an IDN label is termed an ""A-label"". All operations defined in the DNS protocol use A-labels exclusively. The Unicode form, which a user expects to be displayed, is termed a ""U-label"". The difference may be illustrated with the Hindi word for ""test"" — परीका — appearing here as a U-label would (in the Devanagari script). A special form of ""ASCII compatible encoding"" (abbreviated ACE) is applied to this to produce the corresponding A-label: xn--11b5bs1di. A domain name that only includes ASCII letters, digits, and hyphens is termed an ""LDH label"". Although the definitions of A-labels and LDH-labels overlap, a name consisting exclusively of LDH labels, such as""icann.org"" is not an IDN."
