How to organize an internship?

The internship has two important goals:

Implement what you have learned,
To support student development.

The internship has three parties:

A student,
A university supervisor,
A supervisor from the internship base.

The detailed purpose and tasks of the internship are formulated by the student and coordinated with the university and the internship base.

Below are tips on how to organize an internship to support tripartite collaboration and ensure contentment. Thoughtful and systematic practice contributes to the training of the next generation of employees.
