Recommendations

  • Start looking approximately 3 months in advance. If you don't know, keep an eye on the Association of Industrial Partners FI MU and the Job Postings folder in the Course Materials, sign up for JobCheckIN, the jobs site, Indeed, LinkedIn, etc.
  • We recommend combining two responsibilities into one, and writing a final thesis in the company in addition to the internship. Some of the most experienced and supportive companies in this regard include Red Hat, InQool, Oracle, and Monet+.
  • You can also intern abroad and take advantage of Erasmus and other programs, or as a freemover - your own agreement and finances.

FAQ

Do I have to choose only from SPP member companies?
No, subscribing to the SPP newsletter - interesting jobs for students - is certainly useful, but you can find a position in any IT company, and it is even possible to do an internship abroad. CERIT companies are close by and we don't rule out an internship directly in a lab at the faculty.

Are there any restrictions on the company?
Yes, you will not be approved for an internship if a conflict of interest is identified (for example: the sponsor is a brother or the owner is a parent, etc.). You also cannot complete the internship as a self-employed person, even so there are enough legal forms to choose from.

Where can I find out more about internships?
Directly next to the course for the following term you will find both the forms and the Information and timetable presentation, where everything relevant is available, even though you may not have registered for the course yet.
