The EU4EU project is a well-established initiative that connects students and organizations across Europe through professional internships. Over the past ten years, the program has facilitated international internship experiences for students from 47 universities in France, Spain, Italy, and Portugal. More than 500 organizations have participated as Host Organizations, benefiting from the skills and innovative vision of young talents.

In 10 years, about 4,000 students have carried out an internship through EU4EU. Thanks to the Erasmus+ Program, students have received the financial support needed to complete their experiences abroad. Each year, the program attracts students from diverse economic and academic backgrounds, with particular interest in political science, scientific research, and economics.

Building on its solid foundation, the EU4EU internship program has continued to grow, achieving outstanding satisfaction results in 2024. Host Organizations expressed a 96% satisfaction rate, emphasizing the quality, dedication, and professionalism of the interns. The program itself received a 95% approval rating, while students reported positive experiences, with an average satisfaction score of 94% for internships completed this year.

The EU4EU program therefore represents a unique opportunity for both students and organizations:

• For students: a chance to strengthen professional skills, grow personally through an international experience, and build valuable networks across Europe.
• For organizations: access to young talents from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds, helping to create a dynamic and innovative work environment.

With the next registration window opening, now is the ideal time for organizations to explore the potential of hosting an intern through the EU4EU program and to register by October 24th, 2025 on the EU4EU Portal.
