Internships for Bachelor’s programme students
professional training during your studies
Bachelor’s students at LUSEM can do part of their education at a company, embassy, NGO:s or at private and public organisations.
Doing an internship as part of your University studies means that you integrate knowledge and theory from your education with practical tasks in a professional environment. Of course, this means a very good experience on your CV, but it also has a lot of other and perhaps more important benefits:
- Get insights about specific industries, companies and organizations
- Test if a certain career path or industry suits you
- Develop new skills and improve the knowledge you already have
- Apply what you’ve learned during your education in a professional environment
- Acquire skills for future job applications and job interviews
- Build professional networks within your future field
