Course content and
structure |
Internships provide students with a real life professional
learning experience and offer students a unique opportunity to gain
hands‐on experience in a company, institution or organization that
works professionally
with issues relating to business administration and Asian
related issues. The main objective of internships is to convert
academic and theoretical knowledge into professional experience.
This must be mirrored in the report.
The report contains two elements. Firstly, a description of the
organization and the internship along with key learning
experiences. Secondly, an analytical paper relating the host
organization and/or the work completed during the internship to
relevant theories, issues or problems from the ASP
curriculum.
|
Teaching methods |

limited to organizations in Denmark, but can take place in all
parts of the world. The duration of the internship depends on the
contract, but the total period of employment must be 450 hours
hours employment for a 15 ECTS internship. |
