What will you do and learn?

Join us as an intern and you’ll be right at the heart of a major European project, namely the project RESILIAGE, with international partners. You’ll help to create a new, innovative Decision Support System.

This system will be a new tool for knowledge sharing and analysis. Based on the data collected and analyzing that data, the system can then formulate best practices suggestions, identify relevant role models, and summarize lessons learned.

With the addition of Generative AI, the system could also generate smart recommendations.

If you have always dreamt of making a meaningful impact in disaster relief efforts, then you’ve found the perfect place to start!

Main tasks

  • Researching independently to build our Decision Support System.
  • Choosing the right methods and technology to get the job done.
  • Use the selected set of tools to build the Decision Support System.
  • Collaborating with international partners, to gain insights to make the project even better.
  • Reporting your findings and progress, becoming a key voice in our team.

Learning opportunities

Not only will you learn a lot by doing advanced research and tech work, but you’ll also play a big part in a major European project.

It’s a great opportunity to grow both personally and professionally, where you can show off your independence, creativity, and decision-making, while working with others in a collaborative and international setting.

About you

No need to be a tech wizard from the start. If you’re studying in a science or engineering field and are comfortable with programming, you’ll fit right in.
