The work
Hello! Nice to have you here, we know you’re busy, so we’ll keep it short. Are you looking for a challenging thesis internship that also gives you a real taste of the dynamic world of consultancy? Then we have the ultimate opportunity for you! We are looking for a thesis intern to join the Advisory team within the Design & Digital Products practice. In our team, we create new products and reimagine existing ones to deliver better experiences for users and businesses. We are part of Accenture’s creative engine called Accenture Song, where we combine creativity, technology, and business insights to create experiences that drive real impact.
Team The Design & Digital Products team is part of Accenture Song. We’re a cross-functional team of strategists, designers, and technologists who thrive on turning bold ideas into impactful realities. We think, we plot, and we create products and experiences that help our clients solve problems and seize opportunities. Our work spans the full product lifecycle: from envisioning future-fit strategies and building prototypes to launching products and scaling capabilities. Whether it’s crafting digital products that people love, driving industry-changing digital transformations, or improving business performance through technology and data, we are passionate about building experiences and bridging the gap between brand promise and expectations.
Daily tasks: In this role, the main focus will be on writing your master thesis in the relevant domain of Digital Product Strategy. In doing so, you’ll be supported by the dedicated people in our team. Alongside your thesis, you’ll have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the Design & Digital Products domain at Accenture Song, and explore the world of consultancy.
Research: We'll collaborate with you to define a thesis topic that is aligned with our business needs, but most importantly, that interests and motivates you! For example, a topic can be focused on:
