Internship at the Swedish Defence University

Curious about what it is like to be a researcher? The Swedish Defence University is looking for interns with an interest in defence, security and crisis-management.

At the Swedish Defence University (SEDU) researchers are experts in the field of defence, crisis management and security studies. The internship provides insights to the work of a researcher and your work tasks will be similar to those of a research assistant.

A position as a research assistant intern is particularly appropriate for under-graduate students planning to move on to graduate studies, or for graduate students wishing to develop a deeper understanding of their field of study. In addition to assisting with research, interns have the opportunity to network with experts in their chosen fields. Other assignments such as administrative or educational work may occur.

Eligibility

The SEDU offers internships to undergraduate and master students. You must be admitted to a Swedish or a foreign university during the internship semester to authorize study allowance. Please note that this cannot be the Swedish Defence University as our policy is to not accept our own students as interns. You must also ensure you withhold insurance through your university. The internship is unpaid and we are not able to offer accommodation.

Requirements

• Apply for internship during autumn semester no later than April 14.
• Apply for internship during spring semester no later than November 7.
