Orientation
If you are a very motivated and dedicated international student who would like to be equipped with some (additional) work experience before returning to your home country, doing an internship might be a unique way to gain valuable experience in your field of study and develop professional and marketable skills.
| Where to start when looking for an internship?
It is important to know what type of position you are interested in. What are your specific career interests, why do you want an internship and what do you hope to learn, what type of organisation would you like to work for, will you consider both paid an unpaid internships etc etc? As internships are not part of our LL.M. programmes' curricula (i.e. you will not receive credits), we advise to do an internship at the end or after your programme has ended. As a non EU/EEA student you will have to apply for a residence permit for the purpose of ‘search year upon graduation ("zoekjaar") which will grant you permission to work in The Netherlands for 1 year without any salary criterium. For more information please visit: During and after the search year upon graduation. ESL Internship Advisor
Our internship advisor can give you information about the possibilities and practical matters. However, please note that Erasmus School of Law only acts as an intermediary: you will have to apply for an internship yourself with an employer. We advise to start planning in advance! |
