German Bundestag Internship Program 2026: Thursday, July 31 (Application Deadline)

The International Parliamentary Scholarship of the German Bundestag brings together democratically engaged people from around the world—fostering the spirit of international cooperation in a sui generis program where the lingua franca is German!

In the five-month program (March 1 - July 31, 2026) in Berlin, participants complete a three-month internship in the office of a Member of the Bundestag as part of a broader program of university courses, cultural events, and special enrichment opportunities.

Unique in the world as a large-scale international educational program run by a national parliament, IPS symbolizes Germany's distinctive commitment to transparency, multilateralism, and democratic internationalism. Through the cooperation of its international participants, IPS promotes democratic values and tolerance in a pluralistic society; deepens understanding for cultural diversity; and promotes peaceful coexistence in the world.

IPS also strengthens Germany's bilateral relations with the participating countries—including through the engagement of eight Americans currently partaking in IPS 2025 in Berlin!

Open to U.S. citizen college graduates under 30 with strong (B2+) German skills and an interest in international politics, IPS offers an immersive experience of the German federal parliament.
