EUMETSAT offers a small number of internship placements every year to undergraduates and recent graduates providing experience in space systems engineering, satellite meteorology or in work as a public, international organisation.

Placements range from one to six months in duration and generally start on the first Monday in July. 

If you would like to apply for a placement, please note the following conditions:

• You must be a national of a Member or Cooperating State of EUMETSAT, and preferably studying in or graduated from a university in a Member or Cooperating State.
• You must 18 years or over and have completed at least two years of your degree course, or have graduated within two years before the start of the internship.
• You must be able to communicate in English and/or French at a level appropriate for the internship.
• We will expect you to demonstrate skills in Communication, Team Working, Learning Orientation and Innovation & Initiative.

In order for us to consider your application, please specifically mention:

• Which nationality or nationalities you possess;
• Which internship placement you are applying for.

Interns will receive a daily living allowance of 20€. In addition EUMETSAT will reimburse demonstrably necessary travel relocation costs at the start and end of the internship up to 400€.  Interns are also eligible for reimbursement of accommodation costs up to 2,500€.

Please note that internship positions at EUMETSAT are opportunities to develop your professional working-experience during your studies or after your recent graduation. EUMETSAT does not operate a Graduate Recruitment Programme and these internships will not develop into a permanent position.

Interns are responsible for providing their own health and accident insurance and for finding their own accommodation in Darmstadt.
