Information Design

In the sixth semester of the Information Design degree programme our students complete an internship in a national or an international company in the media and design sector. Quite often such internships turn into jobs. The internship is accompanied by a seminar, which accounts for three ECTS. The internship consists of a minimum of 450 hours and the minimum duration is twelve weeks. Completion and positive evaluation of the internship are a part of the degree requirements. It is not possible to repeat the internship.

Please note the following points:

• Fully completed fifth semester: Due to the possible distances involved between the place of study and the location of internships, sitting examinations in the sixth semester is only possible to a limited extent. The examinations scheduled in the fifth semester must therefore be taken by the end of the semester.
• Approved internship position: All internships must be approved by the head of degree programme before internships commence.
• Reports: A written interim report must be sent by email to the degree programme every month. A final report must be submitted after completion of the internship.
• Internship confirmation: Written confirmation of the completed internship must be provided by the company or institution.
• Internship presentation: A presentation is held describing the content and experiences gained on internship. Students from subsequent year groups attend this event together with staff from the degree programme.
