Make your own arrangements
You need to make your own initial arrangements and secure the collaboration of a prospective project supervisor prior to applying to Karolinska Institutet. The most successful approach is to participate in an ongoing research project within your area of interest. When you initiate contact with potential supervisors inform them that you will apply for a NeurotechEU exchange at KI. Supervisors are in high demand and may not be able to respond to your inquiry immediately, so please be patient.
When you have received confirmation, you state the subject area and the hosting supervisor at Karolinska Institutet in your exchange application form. If you need assistance, please email the functional address for NeurotechEU at Karolinska Institutet neurotech@ki.se.
How do I apply for my internship at KI?
When you have recieved a positive internship/traineeship offer at Karolinska Institutet, the international coordinator or NeurotechEU internship coordinator at KI will get in contact with you by email with further information regarding the application process.
You will apply online in our database Mobility Online.
