The internship course is designed to enhance and enrich students’ educational experience by integrating the academic component of their degree programme with the practical workplace experience gained at the internship site. The course provides an opportunity for students to apply theories, practices, and skills in the workplace setting, and to critically reflect on the efficacy of the knowledge learnt in the classroom. Students work full-time or part-time at their host organizations for a minimum of 200 hours. The internship will involve students working in Hong Kong-based or overseas workplaces which provide opportunities to use English for internal and external communication. While the department offers a range of vetted host organisations, self-found hosts may be approved as internship sites at the discretion of the course leader. Students will have to attend three selected workshops provided by the Career Leadership Centre before joining the recruitment process.
