Do international students get internship opportunities and part-time work options during their studies abroad in UK/Netherlands?
Yes, international students can access both internship opportunities and part-time work during their studies in the UK and the Netherlands, but rules differ by country.
- UK: Student visa holders can work up to 20 hours/week during term and full-time during vacations. Internships tied to your course may allow full-time work during the internship period; other internships follow the 20-hour/week rule.
- Netherlands: Non-EU/EEA students need a work permit, with up to 16 hours/week allowed during the academic year and full-time in summer. Employers must apply for the permit. Internships that are part of your program are generally exempt from these limits.
Visa rules and work policies are subject to change.
