DSTI Partner for High-Quality & Garanteed Internships Abroad

For over 16 years, our partner CRCC Asia created culturally conscious, purposeful programmes for those looking to explore and connect with Asia, and now, in Europe. They are experts in designing immersive experiences that highlight the region’s culture, history, and way of life.

CRCC Asia international internship programmes across the globe to help you further you career. Applying to intern abroad has never been easier!

Since 2008, more than 9,000 alumni from over 150 countries have taken part in their global internship programmes throughout South KoreaJapanIndiaVietnam and Thailand, and now Europe, with Paris, London and Berlin.

CRCC Asia 3-month internships, for which DSTI students receive special rebates, are the most recommended, valuable and exciting ways for international online students to gain their professional experience and validate their education.

Internships in Your Local Job Market

Let’s start with the easiest part: DSTI School of Engineering, as a French Higher Education establishment institution, can sign an internship agreement located anywhere in the world.

In such a case, and just like with the CRCC Asia option, the specificities of the French Labour Laws will not apply: only the relevancy of your internship activities will be subject to the go-ahead of DSTI Direction of Studies.

The advantages of this choice could be that (i) you have already gained experience, you know how to navigate your country’s job market, and (ii), you can do an internship up to six months, developing more focus on your activities, instead of a more global approach mixing the discovery of a new country and environment, as with CRCC Asia.

Being a DSTI student also involves a personalised follow-up on your internship preparation and hunt, by reviews of CV, Cover Letter, public profiles (Linked, GitHub, etc.). As always, online students are supported exactly the same as if on-campus.

Job Prospects in France

If you are a data and AI professional, there are plenty of job opportunities available in France. The demand for skilled professionals in this field is rapidly increasing across various industries.

Typical Industries

Some of the main industries in France that are currently recruiting data and AI professionals include:

Technology companies

Technology giants like Google, Microsoft, IBM, and startups like BlaBlaCar and Algolia are hiring data and AI professionals to develop new algorithms, analyze large datasets, and drive innovation.

Financial services

Banks, insurance companies, and investment firms are also major employers of data and AI professionals in France. Companies such as BNP Paribas, Soci←t← G←n←rale, AXA, and Allianz are using data and AI to analyze financial data and develop new algorithms for trading and risk management.

Healthcare

The healthcare industry is a growing area for data and AI professionals in France. Hospitals and research institutions are using data and AI to analyze patient data, develop new treatments, and improve healthcare outcomes. Examples include Sanofi, Novartis, and Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Energy and utilities

The energy and utilities sector in France is recruiting data and AI professionals to optimize energy usage, develop new energy technologies, and improve energy efficiency. Companies like EDF, Engie, and Total are some of the leading players in this industry.

Transportation and logistics

Companies such as SNCF, Airbus, and Michelin are also hiring data and AI professionals to improve logistics and transportation services, optimize supply chain operations, and enhance customer experience.

Work Language in France

While knowing French is indisputably advantageous, it is not always necessary. Many international companies in France (being French or not) use English as their primary language for communication, and there are also plenty of start-ups and smaller firms that operate entirely in English. France has also many very large multinational companies, which were employing 6.6M people out of France in 2020 (INSEE study). However, having knowledge of French can help you stand out from other candidates and may be necessary for certain roles that involve working with French-speaking clients or partners.
