Scope of the Internship Programme
Internships are open to diploma, degree, post-
graduate and doctoral students who wish to
acquire knowledge and experience of a real work
environment to the mutual benefit of both the
organisation and the Intern.
Interns are fully
involved in the work programme of the unit
relevant to their studies under the supervision of
a responsible staff member.
Interns are expected to contribute their skills,
knowledge and competencies while acquiring
supplemental training in their areas of
specialisation but are not full-time employees.
