With DNB's Central Bank Internship Programme, you will discover the financial system, the world of data and help push the buttons for a stable financial system. Together with your fellow interns, you'll go through an introduction programme and kick-off, and you'll exchange experiences. You can choose an internship or graduate internship within the profile (Macro)economics & Monetary Economics, Data & Tech, or Financial Stability and Financial Markets. Will you use your analytical skills and keen eye for financial stability and sustainable prosperity? Your insight is of value to everyone!

This is Monetary Affairs at DNB

Monetary Affairs represents DNB's 'central bank' tasks. That includes steering stable prices in the economy; important for financial stability and sustainable prosperity. The tasks of Monetary Affairs are to a very large extent part of and embedded in the broader DNB organisation, the Eurosystem, the European Central Bank (ECB) and the national central banks of the euro countries combined. In a unique and independent environment, right in the middle of current economic and financial news. In other words, exactly where you want to be.

What your hands-on internship looks like

In an hands-on internship, you are given a fully-fledged role in a department that matches your studies and interests. You focus on a major project or subject and get to know many different aspects of the work done within the department. Under the guidance of an internship supervisor.

What your graduation internship looks like

In a graduation internship, you carry out a specific research project. You choose it together with your thesis supervisor from your university and an internship supervisor at DNB. During your internship, you will spend a lot of time on your research and thesis, but you will also experience what it is like to work at DNB.
