Course objectives
An internship is grounded in (superintendent) work at a selected organisation (e.g. WHO, People in Need, UN etc.) by a student. An internship experience provides the student with an opportunity to explore career opportunities while apply-ing knowledge and skills learned in the classroom in the field. The experience also helps students get a clearer sense of what they still need to learn. The length of the internship is optional (although minimum of internship are 4 weeks). Internship may occur during the academic year or during the summer. The internship will provide students with the opportunity to: 1) acquire first-hand knowledge about the field of work, 2) explore new professional activities and relationships, 3) apply classroom knowledge and skills to the work environment, 4) experience problems and contributing to solutions in the field, 5) develop and refine oral and written communication skills, and 6) learning by doing.
