  Dreaming of working in Japan?
  Are you curious about architecture, design, communication, marketing, HR, radio physical layer technologies, sustainability—or gaining experience with the Swedish Chamber of Commerce or Business Sweden? Then don’t miss this exciting internship opportunity for Linnaeus University students in autumn 2026!

  For the very first time, the Japanese–Swedish collaboration MIRAI is offering Swedish master’s students at MIRAI partner universities the chance to apply for a 20-week internship in Japan. Students who are enrolled in the final semester of their master’s programme in spring 2026 may apply and complete the internship after graduation.

  Applications are submitted directly to the host organisations. After their selection and interviews, a second confirmation process will take place through MIRAI Sweden. Applicants will be notified of the outcome by the end of March.

  Selected students will be offered an Erasmus internship grant. Linnaeus University has a maximum of three grants available.

  Find full details about the internships, timeline, and list of host organisations here:
