During the global COVID-19 pandemic, opportunities for international cooperation and mobility are far and few. One possibility to still experience working in international projects is an internship carried out online. We had the chance to interview a student who participated in a remote internship made possible by the FORTHEM Alliance. Antonia Knieps, a student from the Johannes Gutenberg Universität Mainz, carried out her internship at the University of Jyväskylä, but from her home office. Postdoctoral researcher Joni Lämsä acted as her supervisor. Read their interview on the website of the University of Jyväskylä . If you are a student and became interested in finding an internship placement of your own, please see more information about the Company Internships on the FORTHEM Alliance website. If you became interested in offering an internship placement in your organisation, please fill in an offer form and we will contact you for further details.

ON STREETS In any public area, one should always be alert. There are accidents targeting foreigners - bag snatching, pickpocketing and petty theft. Airports, train stations, overcrowded public transport and routes to major hotels and the Old Town are prime locations for pickpocketers. Therefore, wherever you are, be aware of your pockets and backpacks. When in pubs and restaurants never leave your belongings unattended. Thus you will be able to avoid some unpleasant moments. If possible, do not walk alone at night and do not make friends with unknown persons.
