internship at blender

Hy,

I’m a student computer science engineering and for the upcoming summer I’m looking for an internship/summerjob. I was wondering if blender ever takes any students to work with them, and if they do how I could be able to do this.

Of course I know about GSOC. Problem is that this almost always starts during school exams. Otherwise I would definitely do this. I was just wondering if, besides GSOC, there are any other options.

Yes, I think that “real internships” would be a great benefit for the Institute because it the GSOC is extremely short, while a good internship can last even more (6 months?).

There might be lots of new people (or even older ones :D) that would find it great to gain working experience while working in the Blender Institute and I hope that it might be positive for the project.

What is your opinion?
