The supervisor isn't meant to supervise me as a teacher would, but rather direct me in order to go in the right direction to achieve the internship's goals and give advices along the way : I am supposed to have a certain level of autonomy.</div>

The main stakes with my school are that the internship has to be hosted by an organisation (company, university, etc...) and that it has to be linked with Geomatics. Moreover, an internship agreement has to be signed between the school, the organisation and
the student.</div>

I would be happy to work on aspects of PROJ related to projection questions or CRS transformations (particularly ITRF since some of my teachers are responsible for it). But I suspect you also have specific problematics surrounding PROJ that I'm not aware of
and that could suit me as well.</div>

I also got to discuss with Even Rouault about it some days ago and he found it difficult to arrange... Maybe you can find a way!</div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">It’s very cool that you want to contribute to PROJ! I think it is a great way to spend your internship but I am afraid that it may be difficult to find a dedicated supervisor for you. Personally I would have to do such work in my spare time and
I can’t justify doing that without proper compensation. I suspect that would be the same for most other PROJ developers. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Why don’t you tell us some more about how internships work at your school (what requirements are there, etc). Do you have a particular area of focus that you want to work on? If your school allow it and you are willing to work mostly self-guided
you may be able to get by with a bit of input from regular PROJ developers via the mailing list. Generally we like to help new contributors get started but you shouldn’t expect to get supervision like you would from one of your teachers.</div>

I am a Geomatics Engineering student from the french National School for Geographical Sciences (<a href="http://www.ensg.eu/?lang=en" title="http://www.ensg.eu/?lang=en" class="">ENSG</a>) where we use PROJ a lot. It is particularly used in Geodesy class but
also indirectly in many other fields (since PROJ is used as a building block in many softwares). As such I find that we, students, owe a lot to the community that develops and maintains this software and I would like to thank you all for what you do!</div>

During our second year we have to complete a three-month internship and I thought I could take this opportunity to contribute to the project full-time or at least give a help somehow. Do you think there could be a way to have an institution (university, research
lab or company) that could supervise me to enable this ?</div>
