HCI Research Internship Program

This is an internship program for international Undergraduate and Graduate students of Computer Science and related fields. During their internship, students will have the opportunity to get hands-on experience with HCI research in an internationally leading lab. They will be closely guided by members of the team in working on trending topics in interactive technologies and learn the methods that underlie technical HCI research.

The program targets Master’s students and advanced undergraduate students (starting after the end of year two).

Specifically, we are looking for people with basic skills in at least one of the following points:

The internship will be in-person, at Saarland University in Saarbruecken, Germany. The typical duration is 4-6 months. Only in exceptional cases, we may consider shorter internships of min. 2.5 to 3 months; in this case, the student is expected to familiarise themselves with relevant provided project materials before joining.

Travel (return ticket, economy class) and accommodation for the duration of the internship will be covered by the lab.
