Traineeships in EU institutions, bodies and agencies are among the most interesting opportunities for the personal and professional growth of young people.

Becoming an EU intern is a unique opportunity in many ways. Through these internships, you can have the direct experience of working within the EU, allowing total immersion in the working context and offering a privileged glimpse into potential career paths.

The sectors in which you can carry out an EU internship cover various fields: ranging from human resources, to communication, to information and communication technologies, to competition law. And again, it ranges in the sector of external relations, environmental policy and development policy.

Internships usually last 5 or 6 months and are paid. Payment varies depending on the organization hosting the intern.

There are dozens of opportunities offered; Here we give you just two examples:

  • ECHA (European Chemicals Agency) offers up to 20 annual internships for graduates in scientific areas such as chemistry, biology and environmental sciences, as well as in administrative fields such as law and human resources, for citizens of EU Member States or the European Economic Area. The internships last 3-6 months, and a salary of 1.300 euros per month is expected;
  • la European Court of Auditors instead, it delivers three annual training sessions in sectors relevant to its activities. EU citizens with a university degree or who have completed at least four semesters in relevant areas such as Auditing, Budgeting, Human Resources, Translation and others can apply. The internships last 3-5 months, and a salary of 1.500 euros per month is expected.

The internship selection and hiring procedures are different for each EU institution, body and agency which, therefore, are directly responsible for them.

By selecting the EU institutions, bodies and agencies through the drop-down menu of THIS LINK you can find all available internship opportunities.
