Jobs and internships

Currently there are no job vacancies at the Munich Documentation Center. 

The Munich Documentation Center offers internships for school students who would like to gain work experience and for university students who are required to do an internship as part of their study program. Please note that all internships are unpaid. After completing an internship, interns will receive a detailed testimonial. Unfortunately, we can only offer a limited number of internships, so not all applicants will receive a place.

Your application should include a letter stating why you would like to do an internship at nsdoku and what personal qualities you bring with you. Please include a CV and your last school report and tell us when you would like to do your internship.
