Internship Scheme
The Arts Internship Scheme allows students to gain hands on experience and
equips them with a range of practical skills, built on the knowledge they
have gained during their study. Students are drawn from a range of
discipline backgrounds and will be matched with suitable projects dependent
on their interests, major study area and experience. During the course of
their internship, students are expected to complete a short academic
orientation and some seminars. Students then work on a research task
under the joint supervision of an organisational host supervisor and an
academic supervisor. By the end of the academic year, students write a
report (of about 7 000 words) giving an account of the research project
undertaken during the internship.
Final placement will depend upon academic merit, availability and the
application of an internal quota. In order to complete the process of
placement allocation, students should finalise their enrolment by the
completion of the normal enrolment period. This includes making a separate
application on the prescribed form for entry to the course. Interested
students must contact the Faculty Office prior to 31 March 2008.
Assessment: 5,000-7,000 word major research project, attendance at seminars
and supervisor meetings.
