We have many partners where you can do an internship…

Linking theory and practice is an elementary part of the study concept. The Tourism & Event Management (B.A.) course includes a 12-week internship that seamlessly follows the semester abroad. The internship can be completed either in Germany or abroad.

Why should I do an Internship?

The aim of the internship is to create a close connection between theory and professional practice. Through the internship, which can also take place abroad, the students gain further company-related, practical knowledge. On the basis of the knowledge acquired in the courses, application-related knowledge and practical experience should be conveyed and the processing of specific problems in the desired professional field of activity should be enabled under supervision. During the internship, the students should analyze problems of a subject-specific nature and identify practical solutions in order to support management on various business levels. Competencies: • The students can act responsibly in the context of work in the company. • They are able to apply their knowledge and understanding to activities in their profession and to work out and develop problem solutions and arguments in their specialist area. • You can react to complex problem situations on your own initiative and can adapt to new environmental conditions

 

Internships • Getting to know activities in the later professional field • Cooperation in the respective working group • Independent completion of subtasks in the transfer work working group • Presentation, discussion and reflection of internship experiences • Presentation of the consequences for individual future planning Reflection seminar • Short presentation of practical experience
