Description
The Internship Programme of German Business offers
young graduates and students from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, Croatia,
Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia the possibility of a three to
six-month-long internship at leading German companies. The interns gain an insight into
corporate culture in Germany and are acquainted with modern management and work
organisation.
Following their stay in Germany, the interns return to their
respective home country and are able to contribute the newly acquired knowledge
and skills there. The experience and contacts established will strengthen the
economic development of their home countries and promote bilateral relations
with Germany as well as economic relations within the region. Thus, this
programme and the associated alumni network make an important contribution
towards regional reconciliation, intensified economic relations and create a
cross-sectoral network of young, cosmopolitan professionals in the region.
Eligibility
Students of higher semesters and postgraduates with first
job experience are eligible to apply. Their field of studies should have a
focus either on economic/finance, engineering, journalism or agriculture.
The applicants should generally not be older than 30 years. A very
good command of German and / or English is required. Applicants from Albania,
Bosnia-Hercegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia are
eligible to apply.
Benefits
The interns receive a scholarship that is financed
from the funds of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development
(BMZ). The participating German companies make available both the required management
capacities as well as the internship placements. Furthermore, the companies
cover the cost of accommodation and health insurance for the interns
or pay a monthly allowance;
Prior to the internship, there is a common introductory
programme held in Berlin with the aim of bringing together the interns with the
