Yksilölliset oppimisväylät
An internship period is an entity designed as an individual period. The student is responsible for acquiring the internship. An internship as an entrepreneur is also counted as an internship.
TKI ja työelämäyhteistyö

Kansainvälinen yhteistyö
International co-operation is possible especially in the form of internships abroad.
Opiskelijan työmäärä
The same calculation formula is applied in the student's internship as in other studies:
1 credit (cr) corresponds to 27 working hours, ie 1 full 40-hour workweek corresponds to a workload of 1.5 credits.
5 cr = 135h working hours.
The total amount of 800 hours or 30 cr of internship required in the curriculum (HOPS) can be divided into different sized parts during the studies and there can be one or more employers.
