The CCS offers the opportunity for graduate student to conduct research at the centre. Interns are involved with preparing for their MA thesis or are post-MA students. They might also be engaged in assistance with events planning and general administrative support. These internships provide students with excellent opportunities for personal learning and development, as well as exposure to research skills, team-work, and networking for individuals to develop their future careers.

Applications for internships should be sent to the CCS with a motivation letter, indicating the area of research and the context in which the internship is located (e.g. preparing for field research for the thesis or study requirement of sending university). Timing for the stay at the CCS should be indicated; duration of an internship should generally be between four and eight weeks. Please note that the CCS does not provide remuneration for internships.

In order to apply, please email a motivation letter and a current resume to CCS Director, Dr. Sven Grimm at sgrimm@sun.ac.za.
