Learning objectives |
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 MAIBC programme. Therefore the report must
demonstrate that the student can:
- enter into an academic and professionally qualified dialogue
with the organization/company in question
- collect and critically assess at a high level empirical
material relevant to the addressing of the chosen problem
- select, justify and use with nuance and precision a theoretical
framework (background literature) and method, which 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 as well as reflect upon their
implementation potential in a form that meets the language and form
requirements of the academic genre.

Course content, structure and pedagogical
approach |
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 MAIBC programme and must
to the widest possible extent be based on the obligatory courses in
the first year of the MAIBC programme.
