Popular Types of Edinburgh Internships
In the nineteenth century, Edinburgh’s economy was formed through shipbuilding, banking, and brewing. Today, the city’s economy has grown into a strong force with a focus on scientific research and tourism. With the second strongest economy in the United Kingdom, interns will have endless options when finding a placement.
Short term internships and summer internships vs. long-term internships. Both the Old Town and New Town of Edinburgh feature many universities, where interns can study while participating in an internship. Spend a couple months earning academic credit or up to one year interning post-graduation. Many internships in Edinburgh require a bachelor’s degree, but if you’re still studying, no worries! Previous experience in a related field will land you a great placement.
Popular fields of work. The most popular field for internships in Edinburgh focus on business, economics, and finance. The banking industry has carried the city since the beginning, and it has now expanded with global headquarters for the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS). Others will find placements in technology and science, with opportunities to conduct research in any subject, from iPhone apps to 10,000-year-old landscapes. For those interns who want to experience the magic of Edinburgh, consider an internship in tourism. You may find yourself working in a castle or at one of the city’s major festivals.
Paid vs. unpaid internships in Edinburgh. The only downside here is the unpaid nature of most internships. Edinburgh placements, even with the lack of pounds, usually offer incentives, such as meals and accommodation. No matter your money situation, it’s a good idea to keep the old Scottish saying in mind: “mony a mickle maks a muckle!” Look after your pennies and the dollars look after themselves.
