The United Nations provides opportunities for students enrolled in a graduate programme to undertake an internship at its Headquarters in New York. This Internship Programme is for the United Nations Headquarters in New York only.

Eligible candidates can apply by visiting the United Nations Human Resources website, also known as "Galaxy".

The objective of the Internship Programme is threefold:

• to provide a framework by which graduate and post-graduate students from diverse academic backgrounds may be assigned to United Nations Offices where their educational experience can be enhanced through practical work assignments.
• to expose them to the work of the United Nations.
• to provide UN offices with the assistance of highly qualified students specialized in various professional fields.
