Let your talent run free and bring these companies closer to the people they serve using sophisticated AI-driven solutions; leave your digital mark on the world and advance the future of AI in business. Are you looking for an internship where you play an active role in formulating a vision on the latest digital developments? Do you want to do your graduation research on a topic that is directly relevant in the business world? Accenture offers a full-time graduation internship for 5 – 9 months, depending on the duration of your graduation project. If you already have a research question or area in mind, please share it with us! Your role Being an intern in our Data & AI team means we will shape your internship together. What topics might you consider if you apply to our group? We are interested in developing and implementing new technologies and innovations for Data Science, Machine Learning Engineering, and Generative AI. The thesis possibilities are endless, and we are eager to brainstorm with you to find a topic that best matches your interests. Some examples of previous graduation projects within Data & AI include: * Building an Explainable AI visualization tool to visualize counterfactuals (features that when changed change the prediction outcome) to explain the predictions of Machine Learning models in a business context. * Using a deep learning computer vision technique to automatically generate vectorized floorplan images that can be used by computer tools. * Combining a regression model with a random forest and using panel data to predict customers who are likely to churn at an investment firm, while accounting for an imbalanced dataset. So, what does a "day in the life of a Data & AI intern" look like? While we expect you to be independent and take the initiative in shaping your daily activities, these will include, among other things: * In the case of a graduation internship: writing your thesis at our office. You will have access to all Accenture resources for background information, and the opportunity to talk with our colleagues who are happy to discuss your thesis topics with you. * Have the opportunity to get hands-on experience as a consultant by supporting on client projects * Expanding your network and knowledge by attending team meetings, events, mentor sessions, trainings, guest lectures, and one-on-one coffee chats. At the end of your internship, you will present the results of your thesis or the experience you gained during your work internship at one of our team meetings. We consider this internship as the ideal opportunity to see if there is a match on both sides for a permanent position after completing your time as an intern. As one of our analysts (junior consultant) says: "I started my graduation internship at Accenture three years ago and began a permanent position immediately after graduating. For me, it was a great way to write my thesis while also getting in touch with various clients and seeing the kind of work Accenture does, but also to see if I would like to work for this company!"
