The European Medicines Agency with an organizational seat in London, UK, organises traineeships for university graduates. The programme aims to give trainees an understanding of the Agency and its role within the activities of the European Union. It also enables them to acquire practical knowledge in one of the EMEA’s Units and to obtain professional experience in the course of their work. The application process for the 2015 traineeship intake is now open. The training period lasts for a maximum of twelve months (two consecutive six-month contracts).
