Project Description
Engineering Internships in Cape Town
VACorps engineering internships in Cape Town are some of the more competitive and prestigious internship positions offered by our program. By participating in an engineering internship in South Africa, you will intern with established South African engineers and gain international internship experience in a country that is home to many of Africa’s leading engineering firms.
Candidates for our engineering internships are expected to have a strong theoretical understanding of engineering and/or prior experience working on engineering projects. Our most rewarding internships involve work in the sustainability sector (watch video above). We have placed program participants at internship sites in the following engineering fields:
- Sustainable (Solar & Wind) Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Mechatronic Engineering
- Environmental Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Robotics & Aeronautical Engineering
- Landscape Design & Architecture
- Biotech Engineering
