New Call for Proposals of the «R&I Internships» Programme (INTERNSHIPS/0123)
The Research and Innovation Foundation (RIF) announces the “R&I Internships” programme (INTERNSHIPS/0123).
The “R&I Internships” programme aims to nurture an R&I Culture, by significantly improving the knowledge and skills of undergraduate and postgraduate students in R&I, through the implementation of summer internships in innovative enterprises. At the same time, it highlights the emerging R&I ecosystem of Cyprus as an attractive career choice and gives the opportunity to innovative enterprises to draw new talents.
Expressions of interest can be submitted by enterprises that have:
– either acquired a certificate of innovative enterprises, that is valid at the time of submission,
– or are currently implementing (at the time of submission) a R&I project funded by the EC (either through the framework programme for R&I or through a European Partnership) and/or the Research and Innovation Foundation, excluding the “Innovation Vouchers” programme.
In the framework of the R&I Internships Call, enterprises may host undergraduate and postgraduate students regardless of the year of study, while it is also possible for students from abroad to take part in internships.
The programme is funded by the Republic of Cyprus. The call budget is €100.000, and each intern will receive €1.400 for an Internship of thirty (30) working days.
Interested enterprises can express their interest via RIF’s online form, which can be found in the call text, until 7th February 2023.
