• describes in a short report the executed activities precisely and coherent, and judges about them critically,
• presents effectively is experiences gained during the internship using appropriate media support and gets involved professionally in the subsequent discussion, and

It is the responsibility of the students to apply for an internship in a suitable company or public organization at which the internship can be fulfilled.

The process for the internship has the following (sequential) steps:

1. Choice of the examiner and of the company or organization by the student.
   During the internship each student is attended by an examiner of the degree programme and by an advisor of the company. In case a student does not succeed in finding an examiner for the internship, he can request the assignment of an examiner from the examination board of the Bachelor programme in Information Engineering and Management. When enrolling for the internship, the student fills the form for the internship and he hands the form over to the examiner and the students' secretary. If required, the students' secretary certifies the compulsory character of the internship as part of the Bachelor programme in Information Engineering and Management.
2. Internship
   The student passes the internship in the chosen company or organization.
3. Preparation of a short report and presentation:
   At the end of the internship, the employment is proven by a certificate of employment. The examiner receives a report (maximal 2 A4 pages) and the student gives feedback on the internship with a short presentation (approx. 15 minutes) followed by a short discussion (approx. 5 minutes).
4. Presentation and proof of performance.
   The short presentation may by given in the form of a talk with the examiner, in a colloquium or in a seminar. The form is fixed at the registration of the internship with the examiner. The certificate of employment of the company and the short report must be delivered at the examiner before the presentation. Based on these, a certificate of performance if produced and transferred to the office of study ("Studienbüro").

It is recommended that the internship is taken between the 4th and the 5th term of the Bachelor programme Information Engineering and Management.
