Reading Internship Scheme

Looking to offer an internship to a student through our Reading Internship Scheme?

Learn more about RIS

We are very excited to be running the Reading Internship Scheme again for the 2022/23 academic year! This years’ timeline is: 

  • RIS Official Launch: Wednesday, 2nd of November 2022 
  • RIS Official Close*: Friday 15th September 2023 
    *all internships must be finished by this date. 

We’ve introduced some exciting changes to the scheme this year, mainly on the application process students go through to secure an internship. We hope these changes will give you more tailored applications, whilst at the same time simplifying the application process and levelling out the playing field for our students.

All the information you need to know about RIS can be found in our 22/23 Employer Handbook, including our Ts & Cs, eligibility, funding, how the scheme works, and helpful tips. Once you have read the handbook, you can fill out a Registration of Interest form to indicate you’d like to part-take in the scheme.

If you are new to the programme please read the information in the tiles below, and if you have any questions please contact Fi, the RIS Manager.
