Who we are
The European Parliament’s Directorate-General for Parliamentary Research Services (DG EPRS) provides comprehensive research and analytical support to the Members of the European Parliament, its parliamentary committees and the European Parliament as a whole. The EPRS philosophy is to provide independent, objective and authoritative information. More than 300 staff work in the DG’s 25 units and services.
Why choose a traineeship at DG EPRS?
‘Empowering through knowledge’ is the guiding principle of EPRS. As an EPRS trainee, you will be exposed to the core of the research and analysis process in the European Parliament. Surrounded by colleagues working on publications covering a wide range of EU policies, you will gain detailed knowledge of the EP’s workings while honing your skills in your specific topic of interest. If you choose a traineeship in one of EPRS’s library units, you will help the parliamentary community find the resources they need for their work.
