Content
This is a course where learning takes place in a professional environment outside the university, for example in an industrial company or at a research institution. Practical training may also occur as part of an approved student project at the Faculty of Science and Technology.
The course aims to give students practical experience, as well as the opportunity to immerse themselves in selected issues related to the energy and petroleum industry.
The students must find the appropriate workplace on their own. Practical training in a student project must be based upon an agreement between the student and the department's academically responsible for the actual project.
Between the student, workplace and department, a standard contract is signed, containing a short description of the work expected to be performed by the student. The student, workplace and department must also agree upon a plan devicing how the internship and supervision are to be conducted.
Evaluation will be made on the basis of a report handed in by the student towards the end of the internship, together with certified timesheets or other documentation from the workplace.
