The Process Technology team at ASML ensures that our manufacturing facilities run on reliable and efficient utility systems. These systems include water, gases, vacuum, and abatement, which together form the technical backbone of our operations. As our production environment grows, these systems must evolve to support future performance and capacity needs. In this internship, you will help create a clear long‑term view of how utility systems should develop. Your work will support strategic decisions that keep our factories ready for the years ahead.
You will analyze a manufacturing facility and build a structured overview of its current utility systems. This includes understanding how the systems are set up, how capacity is distributed, and where key dependencies and constraints exist. You will connect today’s situation to several realistic future scenarios to show how the systems will need to adapt. Your main responsibilities will be:
Map the current setup of utility systems in a clear and structured way.
Identify capacity levels, dependencies, bottlenecks, and constraints.
Develop future scenarios with input from technical experts and system owners.
Translate insights into a practical and visually clear roadmap.
Highlight where system pressure will increase and which actions matter most.
Recommend changes or investments needed over time.
Explore how the approach can scale to other facilities using data, layouts, and digital tools.
This is a master’s (thesis) internship for a minimum of 5 months. It requires an investment of 40 hours per week, out of which 3 days per week are onsite in Veldhoven. The start date is projected at the end of August 2026.
To be suitable for the internship, you:
Are enrolled in a bachelor’s or master’s degree in chemical engineering, machinal engineering or data science, or a related study program.
Are interested in using data and digital tools to simplify and visualize technical information.
Are a strong communicator and are able to collaborate with experts and stakeholders
Are analytical and able to bring structure to ambiguous questions, complex systems and multidisciplinary topics
Are able to communicate in English at a professional level.
Other requirements you need to meet:
You are enrolled at an educational institute for the entire duration of the internship;
Attach your cover letter with a clear motivation why you are interested in this internship assignment in particular;
You need to be located in the Netherlands to be perform your internship. In case you are currently living/studying outside of the Netherlands, your CV/motivation letter includes the willingness to relocate.
If you are a non-EU citizen, studying in the Netherlands, your university is willing to sign the documents relevant for doing an internship (i.e., Nuffic agreement).

Who are we?
ASML is an innovation leader in the global semiconductor industry. We make machines that chipmakers use to mass produce microchips. Founded in 1984 in the Netherlands with just a handful of employees, we’ve now grown to over 40,000 employees, 143 nationalities and more than 60 locations around the world.
What do we do?
We provide chipmakers with hardware, software and services to mass produce patterns on silicon through lithography. Our lithography systems use ultraviolet light to create billions of tiny structures on silicon that together make up a microchip. We push our technology to new limits to enable our customers to create smaller, faster and more powerful chips.
Who are our people?
While you may think that only engineers and mathematicians work at ASML, you'll be surprised to find out that our people come from a wide variety of backgrounds.
