Internship contract
An internship contract is statutory. The contract must show that the internship is designed to acquire work experience and does not constitute disguised employment. Agreements about an internship allowance should be laid down in the internship contract.
If the student is doing a internship as a course unit (as an elective or a research internship), the University of Groningen will usually sign the contract too. In such cases, the student should contact the internship coordinator for the Faculty of Economics and Business. We will draw up the relevant contract. If you want to use your own contract, we will ask our lawyers to check it. Please allow an extra few weeks for this.
