Further information (course unit)

The student can complete a 10-credit internship under supervision or receive credit for a previously completed internship or prior relevant knowledge from the field of business administration.

Supervised internships are typically full-time and require 270 hours of commitment. Before starting the internship, the student must have the internship placement approved by their supervisor. A written agreement is drafted for the internship. During the internship period, the student is required to keep weekly notes as well as an initial and final report. The internship includes a learning task, the content of which is agreed upon with the supervisor.

In addition to the above-mentioned ways of completing the internship, adult students who work in relevant job roles during their studies can fulfill the internship requirement by writing a self-assessment report.
