Start Date
Internships in Germany are between 3 months and 6 months long. You must be available for the entire internship duration.
You can apply for one of two seasonal intakes: Summer or Autumn. Each intake offers a flexible start date within the timeframes listed below and the internship end date can be outside the timeframe.
Please note: we are not able to accommodate a 3 month-only internship from June to August due to the German summer holidays. However, we can accommodate a longer internship (e.g. 5 or 6 months) that overlaps with the summer months (e.g. a Spring + Summer internship or Summer + Autumn internship)
