Internships
The United Nations offers many internships to young people. Several ETH students have profited from these opportunities, applying their knowledge in a professional environment and acquiring new skills and networks. Internships also contribute to embedding young scientists in policy environments and promote scientific and technical thinking within UN organisations. ETH students who plan to intern at the UN can apply to ETH Studio for funding. In the past, ETH interns working at the UN have led to new research and implementation projects, and thus play an important role in identifying synergies and defining common use cases on which to collaborate.
