Airbus Internship opportunity in Spain for the final year of study, focused on professional skill development through a project in the company.
Job description
Ready to join one of our Airbus Programs in Spain? Airbus offers an internship program aimed at students who are in the last year of their degree with the main objective of acquiring professional skills through the development of a project in the company.
What we offer
Internship (curricular practicum) program + Bachelor’s Degree Final Project (TFG).
Mission:
You will prepare a final year training project that will allow you to complete your official studies.
About practical training:
* 6 months of curricular practicum internships at AIRBUS from February to July 2026
* Part time:
5h / day - 25 hours per week (8h-13h)
* Tutor assignment for continuous monitoring
Project to be carried out by the student:
The objective of the Final Project will be to design, simulate, manufacture, and validate a test bench for a drone's fuel system according to the provided requirements. The assembly design will use CAD tools (CATIA, Rhino, etc.) and FEM simulations for critical elements. Materials will be selected based on requirements (fuel corrosion resistance, humidity, thermal resistance). The process includes requirements evaluation, risk/opportunity analysis, and selection of verification methods. Preliminary design studies will be conducted with CAD and analytical strength calculations, followed by detailed design with FEM validation. Prototypes may be manufactured to validate concepts;
components will be manufactured and assembled with ongoing verification of requirements.
In addition, to create prototypes and manufacture components, students will be introduced to protospace manufacturing techniques (machining, laser cutting, turning, hot-wire cutting, additive manufacturing, and composite manufacturing). Students will analyze alternative methods to expand rapid manufacturing resources. This will require knowledge of methods, machinery, materials, and technology characteristics to enable appropriate designs (Design for Manufacturing). The final project combines theory and practice with active engagement in rapid prototyping and alternative manufacturing methods. Main deliverables include:
- CAD design of the project stages;
- Analysis and justification of manufacturing technique selections and trade-offs;
- FEM analysis with justification of models and components;
- Descriptive study of material decisions, methods, and encountered problems.
