CeFEO offers the opportunity for JIBS students to apply for conducting an Internship project at the centre.


The CeFEO Intern supports research, teaching, and outreach initiatives carried out by the Centre in coordination with CeFEO’s leadership team. The objective of the internship is to allow the student to apply their theoretical skills in practical work concerning family business and ownership, as well as to gain insight into academic life at JIBS.

Internships are only offered to JIBS students and must be connected to academic credits (7.5 or 15 credits, corresponding to 180 or 360 working hours) within programs that allow for internships. The internship can be conducted only as one elective course (7.5 credits) or two (15 credits), in line with the program guidelines. If you are unsure whether your program permits this, please consult your program director or study counselor before applying.

The CeFEO internship is unpaid and must take place within the academic calendar. The suggested period must align with the following study periods: A1–A2–S1–S2.
