Internship at the Research Center Deutscher Sprachatlas
The Research Center Deutscher Sprachatals offers mandatory internships as part of a BA or MA degree program (e.g. MA Linguistik: Kognition und Kommunikation, module PX). We are currently unable to offer internships to high school students.
If you are interested in such an internship, our research center offers you the opportunity to learn about the scientific work processes of various working, project, and research groups. You will also have the opportunity to work in the Regional Language Research and Documentation Center as well as in the areas of public relations and science communication (see list below).
You can expect professional training, regular feedback, and, if possible, work in a team with student assistants. There is also the opportunity to participate in colloquia, workshops, or classes at the research building.

- Regional Language Research and Documentation Center (scientific collections)
