What we offer

At BASF we generally offer internships for a duration between two and six months.

At numerous sites, we offer a variety of events in which you can get to know the world of BASF in more detail: Introductory events, site tours, and presentations at the visitor center are organized for new starters, as well as regular intern get-togethers and specialist presentations.

You will be accompanied throughout your internship by a supervisor. When you come to the end of your BASF placement, the supervisor will give you an extensive review of your work and will provide you with a detailed report of your achievements. In individual cases, we can also offer university student jobs.
