Learning objectives |
To achieve the grade 12, students
should meet the following learning objectives with no or only minor
mistakes or errors: The objective of the project based internship
is through practical work inside an organization to give students
an insight into and experience of problems facing organizations so
that in an experience-based report the students will reflect on
these problems on the basis of the theoretical and methodological
content of the MCO programme. Therefore the report must demonstrate
that the student can:
- enter into an academic dialogue with the organization
- collect and critically assess empirical material relevant to
the addressing of the chosen problem
- select, justify and use with nuance and precision a theoretical
framework (background literature) that is relevant to the chosen
problem
- account for the chosen problem formulation and its relevance to
the tasks carried out during the internship and present the
problem, analysis and conclusions in a form that meet the language
and form requirements of the academic genre.

Course content and
structure |
A project based internship is a non-obligatory educational
element in the programme that may replace a given number of ECTS
points in the electives block, cf. subsection (6). A number of
counseling sessions are offered in connection with the report that
is to be written after the internship.
The contents of the report will depend on the internship as
described in the contract made between the individual student and
the organization. If during the internship the student has prepared
concrete materials, these may be added as an appendix to the
report, but shall not be included in the required number of pages
in the report; nor shall such materials be included in the
evaluation of the report. The contents of the report must be
relevant to the overall goals of the MCO programme and must to the
widest possible extent be based on the obligatory courses in the
first year of the MCO programme.
