1st call of 2023 NII International Internship Program Guidelines for Candidates

The NII International Internship Program is an exchange activity with students from institutions with which NII has concluded a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement. 

Target candidates

Master and/or Ph. D. students who are enrolled at TU Wien.

Application procedure

Fill out the NII International Internship Program Application Form and submit it to JASEC (jasec@tuwien.ac.at) AND in CC to Prof. Thomas Eiter (thomas.eiter@tuwien.ac.at) with your CV attached.

Choose up to three topics out of the list of topics from NII's website, opens an external URL in a new window and establish contact with NII supervisors who match the desired research topic. For a successful application you will need a letter of acceptance from the supervising professor (this can also be the e-mail correspondence etc.)

A nomination by JASEC at TU Wien is necessary as no direct application from candidates is accepted.

Internal Deadline for submitting your application to JASEC is May 19, 2023.

Attention:

  • Do not send applications directly to NII as your documents will be checked by Prof. Thomas Eiter and Prof. A Min Tjoa before a nomination is sent to the NII.
  • For a successful application, applicants need to receive an informal letter of consent (an informal E-Mail is sufficient) which states that a potential supervisor agrees to welcome the applicant in his/her lab.
  • Available research topics and application forms can be downloaded from the NII Website.
