Internship
Outgoing
We arrange paid internships for Karlsruhe students of natural and engineering sciences.
The income of an IAESTE internship depends on the typical cost of living in the country. For internships outside of the EU, you will usually receive additional support through a travel allowance from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
Most internships last 2-3 months and take place in the summer months; however, there is everything from 4 – 52 weeks and all seasons.
Where to go abroad? You can find the IAESTE member countries on the official IAESTE website by scrolling down to Member Countries.
