Advanced telecommunications research and development is the core of the EU-INSIT strategy. The range of the research centres that make up EU-INSIT varies from core telecommunications technologies such as wireless, signal and image processing to cutting-edge applications of those technologies such as m-internet, e-commerce, wearable computing, telemedicine and enhanced distance learning.

All the research centres available under EU-INSIT are working closely with academia and industry through different programmes. The researchers are working together to apply the technologies developed, deploy and enhance the applications in different areas of activity.

Internship programme

EU -INSIT has an internship program open to students from UG and PG programmes. Students have the opportunity to work in an international environment on one of the research topics provided by the Institute.

Applicant guidelines

• Student applicants must be from an EU state. We do have an internship program available for non EU members, for the universities that we have signed a cooperation agreement with.
• The duration of the internship is usually 3-6 months, however, in exceptional cases it can last more than 6 months
• The applicants should have a background in computer science, engineering or mathematics
• Space at EU-INSIT is limited so only a small number of applicants can be accommodated at any one time
• Funding is very limited and will only be available under exceptional circumstances. No living accommodation is provided, so applicants would need to make their own living arrangements, once they’ve been accepted as interns
• Applications should be sent, preferably by email, to research@eu-insit.com
  

Applications should include:

• An up to date CV
• The names and addresses of 2 referees
• A brief description of the area of interest and possible project
