Your internship must be related to the topics of the Master’s program, to geographic, social scientific, sociopolitical, economic or other related topics of global inequalities. This can include internships with non-governmental or not-for-profit organizations (NGOs), government ministries / institutions, research organizations / think tanks, foundations, planning agencies or companies. The focus should be on enhancing professional skills and on getting to know a broad variety of tasks within an organization, experience team work and to make professional connections.

You don’t need to confer your choice of internship giver with the responsible head of examination board of the Masters program at FU prior to the internship. You just need to be certain that the internship suits the requirements in terms of time commitment and content. If you are not sure about a specific internship offer, please reach out to us via email at global-inequalities@geo.fu-berlin.de. The final recognition and accreditation of your internship is made by the head of the examination board.
