The internship report along with documentation of completion
must be submitted before the semester's annual deadline
for internship reports:
1. March - for autumn semester internships

The internship report must be handed in through Digital Exam.
The Internship must be pre-approved by IBA before the start of
the semester and before the internship begins.
IBA supports internships in startups in connection
with CSE.
This requires an agreement with CSE, which follows a separate
application process - for more information

Following an agreement with CSE an application must be sent in
for pre-approval and registration of the internship at the IBA
Study Board as with any other

Course content, structure and pedagogical
approach |
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
IBA curriculum.
|
Description of the teaching methods |
An internship must involve both job training and
formalized learning processes. It must take place within an
existing organization (company, governmental, non‐governmental) in
which the student is hired by a contract specifying time period and
contract hours. The internship is not 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.
CBS offers no lectures in connection with internships; however,
students are advised to take contact to their CBS supervisor during
the internship period. |
Feedback during the teaching period |
Feedback is an integrated part of the sessions
between the student and supervisor throughout the project report
process. |
Student workload |
Hours of employment minimum |
450 hours |
Exam activities including preparation |
45 hours |
|
Further Information |
Supervision is 6 hours.
The internship guidelines are published on
my.cbs.dk.
