Internship at UR
Applying for an internship/traineeship at UR
Many international students are interested in doing a traineeship at UR.
Traineeships are possible but only within a certain framework, e.g. within the ERASMUS+ Program (ERASMUS SMP).
| ? Biology | ? Biochemistry |
| ? Chemistry | ? Medicine - clinical part (see below for further information) |
| ? Physics | ? Pharmacy |
| ?Psychology | ? |
Due to capacity issues, preference is given to trainees from partner institutions.
UR does not accept any trainees who have already completed their studies and are planning to do their traineeship for further professional qualification after their studies.
Please be aware of the following instructions:
Duration of Traineeship / Time Frame
All trainees will be registered as non-degree seeking students at UR. For this reason all traineeships should take place during the regular semester periods which are:
- October 1? - March 31
- April 1 - September 30
A traineeship should last for at least two months but may also cover a full semester. Traineeships that last for more than 90 days may be subject to special legal requirements. Please contact the International Office ahead of time, if you plan on coming for more than 90 days.
If the duration of the traineeship is not identical with the semester dates but overlaps? two semesters, students have to pay semester fees for two semesters which we do not recommend.
Intership Agreement
Trainees need to get a signed traineeship agreement which settles the goals and frames of the traineeship.
ERASMUS trainees get their traineeship agreement from their home universities.
Students who do a traineeship outside the ERASMUS+Program please contact: international.exchange-student@ur.de
ERASMUS Trainees must follow the same rules and regulations as students coming via the regular student exchange (SMS) regarding nomination and application to the university.
Incoming students to UR who wish to do a traineeship need to provide a letter of acceptance of the supervisor of the traineeship at the time of nomination. The learning agreement for traineeships will have to be handed in together with the application documents.
