Hey, I'm a second year mechanical engineering student in Cyprus and I'm about to enter my third at the end of September.

I'm aiming to complete my Master's Degree in Aerospace Engineering at ISAE-SUPAERO in Toulouse, France.

They're a pretty prestigious institution and only accept the best students out there (10% acceptance rate), that's why I want to expand my CV with actual work. I want to do an internship in the coming summer of 2024.
I actually tried to do an internship this summer but I had to stay in Cyprus and the aerospace industry here isn't as powerful as other EU countries like France or Germany.

Do you guys have any recommendations as where I should complete my internship in the summer of 2024? (In Europe)

Thank you very much for any response

Since your goal is to pursue your master's in France, you should seek an internship with a French aerospace company.
 
Check out who your profs work with or get funded by. The easiest way to get an internship is if someone makes a phone call for you.

Thread 'PSA -- Contact PI's before applying to graduate school in the US'

Given the current funding situation, you should contact potential departments or research groups before you apply and pay any application fees. Many programs are not taking new graduate students at all this cycle because of funding uncertainty, unless a specific advisor can show they already have money to support you for five years. This is what I’ve heard directly from 20–30 programs. Do not waste money applying blindly.
