The Internship Seminar is a mandatory element of a (voluntary) credit-seeking internship taken in the course of the BBE or WISO bachelor's programs. 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

• Internship presentation
• Class discussions including giving and receiving feedback
• Guest lecture by a career expert of WU ZBP Career Center

• Written internship report – 30% - Please upload the internship report on CANVAS by January 6, 2025. 
• Internship confirmation - The internship confirmation has to be uploaded separately on CANVAS by January 6, 2025. Please provide your internship supervisor with the form available on the website (see step 5) 
• Presentation – 50% (quality of the oral presentation of the internship 30% & visual appeal of the presentation 20%) - you will give the presentation during one assigned session. The presentation schedule will be published during the first class. The presentation does not necessarily need to be a classical powerpoint presentation. You may be creative :)
