Internship in IT

Catalog description

The internship provides students with an opportunity to gain valuable practical experience under the guidance of a supervisor/mentor in the work setting, as well as a professor in the academic setting. The goal is to integrate practical work experience with the cumulative knowledge and skills obtained during the students' education. It is expected that students will develop personal, professional and additional academic competencies during the internship. In order to accomplish this, students will need to go beyond the common experiences of a normal employee. Study, reasoning, reflection and theoretical and conceptual exploration will be required for students to develop new skills and knowledge to get the most of the internship experience. All students in the Information Technology program are highly encouraged to obtain relevant work experience in the information technology field before graduation
