Internships Bedrijfsmanagement

The internship is a mandatory curriculum component for all final year students and is conceived as the culmination of the bachelor's degree. Some majors link the bachelor's thesis to the internship, for which we also expect your cooperation. The internship guidelines of the major or the track contain the purpose of the internship as well as the commitment of the parties involved.

The internship period in semester 1 starts medio September and ends no later than medio December.
The regular internship period in semester 2 starts medio February and ends no later than medio May.
The internship provides students with opportunities for experiential learning by active presence in a real professional and social work environment. During the internship, the student can apply his or her theoretical knowledge in real-life practical situations that are relevant to the nature and level of the programme.
