Students are encouraged to undertake a non-graded and zero-credit professional internship during their study. The aim is to help them find out their strength and weakness, learn and apply working experience in real-world industry setting, realise their responsibility as a team member and communicate with other people in real working situation. The internship is normally of at least two months full-time employment or professional practice during the summer between the second and third years but it can be a minimum of 160 hours of work. Students are required to conform to all reasonable requirements of their internship employer. Both the employer and the student file reports with the Department after the internship.
