Content

Primarily the internship should be done to gain economic and business work experiences. Certainly, the interns are free to integrate technical activities as well. A commercial internship provides an insight into business or administrative processes of business transactions. Therefor departments such as controlling, organizing, marketing and planning appear particularly suitable. It remains the companies and interns left, which stations and areas the intern will eventually go through. But the focus should always be in accordance with operational realities of the company.

Regarding the election of the company, in which the internship is absolved, there are no specific rules. Beside of banks, public administration or international organizations even large industrial companies be considered, because of the technical profile of the Bachelor Programme.

Recommendation

None
