Doing an internship abroad is a great way to gain international work experience, and to boost your CV. This page helps you to find internships, discover the right contact people and check insurance for your period abroad.
All students, irrelevant of background, have equal and fair access and possibility to participate. You are always welcome to contact us if you have any questions, if you are in need of support, or if you have a disability. Additional scholarship funds are available within some exchange programs for students who, for example, travel with a child or have a disability.
Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus and COVID-19, the University is following the updates and recommendations from The Public Health Agency.
Start by contacting either your programme, course coordinator or your department’s internship coordinator to discuss opportunities available to you. You can also directly contact a company or organisation that you are interested in. Your faculty or department might also have international networks through research collaborations and exchange agreements.
For students at the Department of Global Political Studies (GPS), there is specific information when applying for internships.
If you are doing an internship or conducting field studies for your thesis in Europe, you can apply for a scholarship from Erasmus+.
