About you

An internship is about learning - therefore we're not so much about the heavy resumes with fancy titles. Instead, we are looking for you who are eager to learn more about digital methods, data analysis, and STS. Having a combination of data analysis skills and project management skills is beneficial in the role, but we believe in “learning by doing”- so most importantly you have the ambition to learn and become really good at both.

Qualifications

• Ideally, you’re studying an MSc in social data science, sociology, anthropology, techno-anthropology, or similar.

• Communicate fluently in English (if you also speak Danish - it is an advantage).
