Internships

After having studied theory at university for years, you will need practical experience in a company to steer the path of your career. In an internship you can find out what your strengths are, which type of job you might enjoy most and establish useful contacts for the future.

At Umicore in Poland, we offer different kinds of internships in both Nysa and Nowa Ruda during which students can apply their theoretical knowledge to real work experiences. We support our interns every step of the way in a challenging, highly professional yet friendly and engaging environment.

What you will be doing 

During the Internship Program you will work as part of a team and learn from experienced and enthusiastic Umicore colleagues. Depending your assignment, you will fulfill specific tasks and contribute to the implementation of some exciting projects. The duration of the internships  can vary between four and twelve weeks.

What we offer

An internship is an opportunity to test out all the skills that you developed at university and see how they work in the real world. At Umicore, we want to make sure that you make the most of your internship and take advantage of all the opportunities that come with it:
