Internships during your studies
Internships during your studies
In addition to the value that an internship can have for your personal career, it is also an important part of your degree programme - a compulsory component for the Bachelor's degree programme and an optional component for the Master's degree programmes.
Internships in the Bachelor's degree programme
For all dual Bachelor's degree programmes, one or two work placement modules totalling 15 credit points must be completed. These credit points are credited in the area of specialisation, but are accompanied by one of your subjects - in the form of accompanying courses.
There are certain possibilities to have professional experience already gained recognised. Longer stays abroad in a Slavic-speaking country (semester abroad or language courses) can also be recognised as an internship, provided that the work completed abroad has not already been recognised elsewhere. Please note, however, that internships are of decisive importance for your future career prospects. Internships should therefore play a correspondingly important role in your degree programme. Check whether you have the opportunity to do an internship at other locations or to go abroad. If there are any problems with your study plan, please contact your lecturers or student advisors.
You can find more information in the internship regulations for the interdisciplinary Bachelor's degree programme
Teaching profession:
Students with the professional goal of becoming a teacher must complete two training modules:
- the orientation internship (prx101) of usually three weeks (90 hours and accompanying course / 3 CP + 3 CP). This should take place in fields of activity outside the school.
- The General School Placement (ASP) (prx102) of generally 6 weeks (180 hours and accompanying course / 6 CP + 3 CP). This should be carried out at the type of school for which you are aiming to become a teacher.
Extracurricular career goal:
Students who are not pursuing a teaching profession can choose between the following options:
- 1 Professional field-related internship of usually 12 weeks (prx108; 360 hours and accompanying course / 12 CP + 3 CP)
- 2 career-related internships of 3 + 6 weeks (prx101/prx106 + prx107; 90 + 180 hours and 2 accompanying courses / 6 CP + 9 CP)
