The
German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is pleased to announce that for summer
2013 we will again offer three internship programs: RISE (Research
Internships in Science and Engineering), RISE professional and RISE
worldwide. RISE has established itself as an outstanding opportunity to
combine serious research with a rewarding study-abroad experience. All three
programs are targeted to students from the fields of engineering, physics,
chemistry, biology, earth sciences (geology) and related disciplines.
RISE undergrads have the
opportunity to work on cutting edge research projects at top research
institutions (e.g., Max-Planck-Institutes) and universities in Germany.
Students are paired with German PhD students in a unique mentoring partnership
to ensure immediate integration into hands-on lab work and a built-in social
network with an excellent opportunity to develop new technical skills. RISE
participants receive a scholarship to cover living expenses. To learn more
about RISE, please visit: http://www.daad.de/rise/en
or email: rise@daad.de.
RISE
professional is
designed for recent graduates, Master's and PhD students, and undergraduate
RISE/DAAD alumni who are matched with a well-known German company, where they
gain insight into the professional applications of science and engineering and
develop practical skills. Internships can last from one-and-a-half to six
months. Similar to RISE, this program features a scholarship to cover living
expenses. Online registration is currently available. To learn more about RISE
professional, please visit: http://www.daad.de/rise-pro/en
or email: rise-pro@daad.de.
Online
registration and the internship database for RISE and RISE professional open on
December 6th. The application deadline for both programs is January
31, 2013.
Also
continuing this year is RISE worldwide. German students in the early stages of their studies who have the
ambition to work abroad and gain hands-on research experience in their fields
will be matched with researchers worldwide who wish to engage in a
meaningful cooperation with a young German scholar. These German interns receive
a DAAD scholarship to help cover living expenses and travel costs. Participating hosts receive invaluable assistance with their own
work—they profit both professionally and personally from contact with the
intern, having the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the culture,
lifestyle and higher education system in Germany.
Research groups interested in hosting a German
research assistant in the summer of 2013 are invited to participate in RISE
worldwide and to submit project proposals at:
http://www.daad.de/rise-weltweit/en.
The
time-frame for the submission of project proposals has already begun and
will close on November 25, 2012.
