The Internship Programme is designed to bring qualified and motivated students with diverse backgrounds into the OECD to work on specific projects related to the field of their studies and provide them with invaluable international experience.
What are the steps of the process?
- Step 1: Students submit their applications by filling an online application form;
- Step 2: VMU International Cooperation Department will select 10-15 qualified candidates based on their motivation and academic performance and will provide OECD with their data for the next selection round;
