Course content, structure and pedagogical
approach |
The internship must have an international or intercultural
scope. This can be fulfilled by the location of the organisation
where the internship is conducted or by the nature of the job that
the student does during the internship.
The student must have a project supervisor from whom s/he is
eligible for supervision. For 22.5 ECTS, 12 hours of supervision is
granted. Read more about supervision at
my.cbs.dk => Academic Internship.
Before the start of the internship, a preliminary outline of the
internship project should be handed in to the supervisor. Specific
timelines are discussed with the supervisor. It is a must to
collect relevant data/information for the report during the course
of the internship and to update the supervisor on these
developments, making sure the necessary information is collected
for an academic exploration in the internship report.
|
Description of the teaching methods |
The purpose of the supervision is to ensure that
the internship relates to relevant theoretical and empirical
problems within the chosen study area. |
Feedback during the teaching period |
Feedback is given by the supervisor in the
allotted supervision hours and at the oral exam. |

internships at MSc BLC. The form can be found at
