We strongly encourage people underrepresented in the field to apply. These internships would provide opportunities to work with mentors from the RTG.<\/p>\n<p>Internships can be as long as 3 months and should not be shorter than 1 month. The internships are financially supported with a stipend of 600 euros per month and up to 600 euros to cover travel expenses to come to Berlin.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Internships can be done either in summer terms (February to August) and winter terms (September to January). <strong>The next deadline for internships in the winter term is July 14, 2025. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your application for an internship should include a letter of motivation, a CV, copies of transcripts and certificates (in a single pdf file!). Please include the name and contact details of at least one person who can provide a letter of recommendation upon request. In addition, please indicate one or more research areas you are interested in to do your internship.<\/p>\n<p>Please send your application via email to rtg2575@<br \/>\n(followed by physik.hu-berlin.de). Questions about the program can be sent to the above email.<\/p>\n<h4>Q&amp;A with Former Interns<\/h4>\n<p>The internship program is a great way to learn about research topics in quantum field theory and theoretical physics, to get a feel for what a research career is like, and to establish a professional network outside one&#8217;s home university. <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.hu-berlin.de\/rtg2575\/equal-opportunities\/internship-testimonials\/\">See this post to read about the experiences our former interns have shared with us.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- The internships are financially supported with a stipend of 450 Euro per months and up to 200 Euro to cover travel expenses to come to Berlin. If needed, additional financial support can be discussed. --><\/p>\n<h2>Non-Standard Models (outreach)<\/h2>\n<p>The RTG recognizes the importance of a wide range of views for fresh ideas and progress.<br \/>\nSince its inception its members have strived to advance non-standard ideas and identities, perspectives and persons (m\/f\/d), and share these with the wider public.
