Internships Abroad
Doing an internship abroad is a great way to gain work experience, make new contacts and to sharpen your CV!
Many students at Malmö University have the opportunity to do an Internship/ work placement abroad as part of their education. Contact your internship coordinator or the international internship officer at your school/faculty to discuss the possibility of Internship/work placement.

Insurance coverage during internships abroad
Please note that you are not automatically covered by Kammarkollegiet's Student UT insurance scheme during an internship abroad.
In order for you to be covered by the insurance scheme, Malmö University must have a documented agreement/contract with the company/organisation where you are doing your internship/work placement. An agreement will be created if you get your internship credited, and / or do an Erasmus Internship. Contact your international internship officer or your internship coordinator for more information.
