Starting year round
The duration of our internships vary between short (6-12 weeks), mid (3-12 months) and long-term (1 – 1.5 years). As a bachelor student, you can gain experience in your field during your summer break and as a master student, we can help you to start your international career. Starting dates are year round, so if you want you can start next month. Or maybe you like to plan a few months ahead, whatever floats your boat.
