Materials
There is no separate study material included in this course.
The employer may require the trainee to become acquainted with the respective internship task or part of it.
Practical training-related documentation (training agreements, realization and reporting instructions) can be found on the Learn page of the Game Design practical training.
Teaching methods
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.
Employer connections
Internships are carried out in gaming companies or RDI projects.
International connections
International co-operation is possible especially in the form of internships abroad.
Student workload
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.
Content scheduling
Student finds and applies for a practical training placement in a game company or game project.
