Sisältö

After the first year of the degree programme students participate in an Internship or Work Placement. If needed, other possible ways of completing the internship than a work placement may be considered on a case by case basis.
The internship is composed on the following components:
1. An internship information session before the internship
2. Making an internship plan and application for possible financial support
3. An internship in a workplace or in voluntary work related to public or global health (3 months)
4. Composing a reflective evaluation report or a reflective learning journal on the internship and giving a presentation in an internship seminar.
The place and nature of the internship or work placement should be relevant to the programme and may be in Finland, or in an international setting.
As a rule, it is the responsibility of the student wishing to complete an internship or work placement to identify and apply to host organisations which match their interests and career goals. The faculty will assist the student with the practical arrangements and may be able to help identify potential internship hosts.
Some funding for the internship or work placement is available through the University and Erasmus+ programme
