INTERNSHIPS FOR STUDENTS

 

If you are pursuing your universities studies, you are residing in one of our member Halls of Residence and you are looking for a place where you can have a first professional experience, you are in the right place: EucA opens the doors of its Brussels office!

 

Our internship program mirrors our traineeship one (so please review tasks, profile and application process mentioned above), but on a different scale: a duration of minimum 160 hours, a selection process more lenient on the skills required and unfortunately no remuneration (per Belgian law, internships that are part of university coursework cannot be paid). We offer a 200€ per month as reimbursement for transport and meal expenses. The duration of the internship can be agreed on case by case.

 

There is no deadline to apply, the process is open until the vacancies are filled out.
