Research Internship Market

The Research Internship Market gives an opportunity for PhD candidates to post internship positions and look for an intern willing to help them with their research project. It also offers students (BA/MA) the possibility to find a research internship in the field of Life Science, Photon & Neutron and Social Science, and thereby gaining first–hand experience working on a research project.
