Professional internship
The Professional Internship is a compulsory part of the Master's degree programme. It includes a preparatory phase, a placement period, and a follow-up phase.
In the course Professional Internship, students focus on a defined task or internship project in the professional environment of agricultural sciences. In doing so, they apply their subject-specific, method-specific, social and personal competencies acquired during their studies, thereby expanding and deepening these skills. Additionally, they reflect upon and present their internship experiences.
