The Internship Seminar is a mandatory element of a (voluntary) credit-seeking internship taken in the course of the Business and Economics bachelor's program. It introduces you to the objectives of an internship and helps you to structure and evaluate your learning experiences during the internship. Additionally, you will be engaged in reflecting your own and your peers' learnings during your internships and get insights into job market options.  

After successful completion of the course you will be able to

• assess your learning experiences during an internship
• evaluate your individual strengths and weaknesses in relation to the tasks of your chosen internship
• identify areas of personal improvement to succeed in your next internship/first job after graduation  
• present key infomation about your internship to your peers

You are required to attend all sessions.
