Internships and research projects
In the last semester of your master ICT in Business and the Public Sector you are writing your master thesis. A lot of our students follow an internship at a company or government organisation during this period. There they do their research and write their thesis. This often opens future career perspectives and a nice professional network.
Students can arrange for an internship themselves. Interesting internship and research opportunities are posted on this website. Just make sure that before you sign your contract for the internship you contacted your academic supervisor in advance in order to ensure that the academic level of your thesis is guaranteed.
For non-EU/EEA- students there is a standard internship agreement available by NUFFIC (the Dutch organisation for internationalisation in education). This agreement is obligatory.
