Specialised internships across Europe for every career path.
Not every career fits neatly into one category — and neither should your internship. Whether you're studying law, psychology, sustainability, journalism, sports science, or HR, we connect you with Erasmus+ eligible and paid placements in Spain and across Europe.
Spain Internship places students in specialist fields — law, psychology, sustainability, HR, and more — in vetted organisations across Spain for 2–6 months. Erasmus+ eligible, open to EU and non-EU applicants, with full documentation support.

Spain is home to a vibrant civil society, a growing green economy, and a strong network of law firms, NGOs, HR departments, and media organisations that actively welcome international interns. Whether your degree is in social sciences, environmental studies, communications, or sports management, we match you to host organisations that offer real responsibility and structured mentoring.
Through Spain Internship, specialist students access the same full-service placement support as students in mainstream fields: customised matching, Erasmus+ documentation, interview preparation, and ongoing support throughout the placement. We work with organisations in Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, Valencia, and Bilbao — as well as Brussels-based EU institutions for law and policy roles.
Most specialist placements run 2 to 6 months and are available year-round. Non-EU applicants receive visa guidance and a support letter from the host organisation. Erasmus+ KA1 grant holders can receive an additional €350–€600 per month from their home institution on top of any stipend from the host.

Why choose a specialised internship in Europe?
Specialist degrees often produce the most capable professionals — but they also face the biggest challenge finding internships that genuinely apply their knowledge. Our network includes law firms, therapy centres, sustainability consultancies, media organisations, HR departments, and sports academies that have hosted international interns for over a decade.
Spain's strategic location and multicultural workforce make it ideal for students who need cross-cultural exposure alongside academic depth. NGOs in Madrid and Barcelona work with migrants from over 80 countries. Environmental consultancies in Seville contribute to EU biodiversity targets. Journalism and media startups across all major cities are actively digital-first and internationally minded.
- Apply niche academic knowledge in real-world professional projects
- Collaborate with experienced practitioners in your specific field
- Gain international exposure and Erasmus+ mobility experience
- Improve language skills and cultural adaptability beyond tourist-level Spanish
- Strengthen your CV with unique, hands-on experience unavailable at home
- Bridge the gap between classroom learning and professional practice
- Access placements in top cities: Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, Valencia, and Brussels
