Projects and internships

As a study abroad or exchange student, you can also take part in a project or do an internship at Leiden University.

Gaining approval

Your home university coordinator can advise you about the options for doing a project or internship at Leiden University. Once you have identified a suitable option, you will need to request approval from the Leiden University faculty or institute in question. Your home university coordinator can tell you who to contact at Leiden University to gain approval. 

Submitting an application

Once you have gained approval, the next step is to submit an application for a study abroad/exchange programme at Leiden University. Apply as early as possible! Project and internship places are limited and cannot be guaranteed.
