SUMMARY:Other:Internship Posting - UROP International at Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule (RWTH) Aachen
DESCRIPTION:UROP International at Aachen is designed for students from North American universities who wish to gain research experience by conducting research projects at RWTH Aachen University. It takes place during a ten-week research summer school between the middle of May and the end of July.\n\nUROP International at Aachen consists of three components: a research project at one of RWTH Aachen's research institutes or labs is at the core.\n\nAdditionally\, students are offered a comprehensive accompanying program: an intensive German course and workshops on intercultural learning\, scientific methods\, and research practice to prepare them for their respective research project.\n\nFurthermore\, the international guests participate in a number of leisure activities to gain a look at German history and culture and meet German and international students at RWTH. Regular get togethers\, excursions in the region\, institute visits\, and much more\, form the framework of the students' stay in Aachen.\n\nThe program’s duration is ten weeks. The first week is dedicated to a Fit for UROP at Aachen workshop\, introducing participants to research and culture\, as well as to an intercultural training\, which allows the students to gain an initial impression of German culture and informs about intercultural differences. Moreover\, the first week is used to settle organizational issues and to make students familiar with RWTH Aachen University and with life in Aachen. Each student is assigned a RWTH student\, who serves as a buddy and mentor during the first steps in Aachen.\n\nFrom the second week to the end of the program\, students work on their research project full time. The German language course starts during the first week and ends at the end of the eighth week. It takes place twice a week in the morning.\n\nThe program is supplemented by numerous leisure activities and excursions with the buddies.  All communication is in English.\n\nStudents will receive a certificate for both their research project and the language class upon successful completion of the program\, marked by the submission of a report and participation in the closing UROP at Aachen Symposium\, where students present project results as part of a research conference. A total of 60 students can annually participate in UROP International at Aachen.\n\nThis program is open to all LSA students but is not administered through the University of Michigan.  You will be eligible to receive German 351 credits (Fall 2019).  Talk to a German advisor about language credits.\n\nWebsite: http://www.rwth-aachen.de/cms/root/Forschung/Angebote-fuer-Forschende/Angebote-fuer-Studierende/UROP/~wmy/UROP-INternational/?lidx=1
