Internship

Students who want to do an internship can contact Dr. Pascal Duenk. Please note: it can take some time to make all the necessary arrangements for you to start your thesis or internship, so make sure you contact him in time (preferably ~6 months before the planned start of your thesis or internship).

You can also find an internship project yourself and arrange approval of ABG. When in doubt, or if you have any questions, please contact Dr. Pascal Duenk or your study advisor.
