As a trainee at AWI

Would you like to get to know possible future occupational fields already during your studies or do you have a definite interest in a special research topic? Then there are numerous ways at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) to gain practical experience, get to know different research disciplines and to gain exciting insights into non-university research. Voluntary internships for students are generally possible in all research departments and logistical, technical and administrative sections.

There is no fixed contingent for internships at AWI. An employment depends on the capacity and projects in the respective research departments and will be individually coordinated by the supervisors. Basic laboratory practice or a bachelor's degree is generally required within experimental work groups. The specific conditions and options for an internship should be clarified beforehand.
