Internships are planned in all MIT Portugal focus areas. Currently Internships have been developed in the Engineering Design and Advanced Manufacturing area for PhD students.
LTI Internships
LTI internships are more than the "soft" internships found in many European companies. LTI internships are full-time placements that last for up to 12 months and place qualified and matched LTI Ph.D. students into leading European companies. Two faculty advisors, one from MIT and one from Portugal, support the student. They also visit the company to organize the project and review the on-location work. The work conducted by the intern student during the internship will be agreed with the company and will be framed within the student's Ph.D. thesis. The student's coursework builds relevant skills for that work. LTI Internship Partner companies have direct access to MIT and Portuguese university research through the faculty advisors, their research centers, and an annual meeting that additionally includes peer-to-peer networking and governance input into the LTI internships program.
