Traineeship at European Union Institute for Security Studies

11:05:00 PM
From September 2014 to January 2015, the European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) is providing a limited number of traineeships to candidates who have obtained their Master’s degree.
The main task of trainees will be to assist the research team under the supervision of the Documentation and Research Officer who is responsible for the programme. Work will be primarily focused on research, while certain administrative tasks may also be entrusted to trainees from time to time.
The traineeship will be for a period of 5 months, running from the beginning of September 2014 to the end of January 2015. According to the background of the selected trainees, the traineeship will be based either at the Institute’s headquarters in Paris or at the EUISS Brussels Liaison Office. Please mention your (non-binding) preference in the application.
Trainees will receive a monthly stipend of 1000 euros. Trainees are entitled to one day’s leave per month plus French festivities and public holidays. They are expected to be present at the Institute during normal working hours, although justified absences may be authorised by the Documentation and Research Officer (France) or the Brussels Liaison Officer (Belgium) upon request.
The Institute regrets that it cannot pay for travel expenses or accommodation nor can it assist trainees in finding accommodation in Paris or Brussels.
The deadline for applications is 12 May 2014, 18:00 CET. Applications received after this deadline will not be taken into consideration.
