      -> These interns cannot be accepted.

  • It must be proven that internships lasting longer than 3 months are subject to a provision under higher education law as an integral part of the respective examination regulations. To ensure this, interns must have the document "Bescheinigung Pflichtpraktikum" [Word|PDF] signed and submitted to the International Office.
  • Accordingly, graduates who wish to complete a voluntary internship always fall under the Minimum Wage Act and cannot be accepted as interns.
