A 3 months internship is a required 18 ECTS component of the 2 year Erasmus mundus master program in the Psychology of Global Mobility, Inclusion and Diversity in Society. Students are required to spend 300 hours on professional placement in an NGO or other organization dealing with diversity and inclusion, migrants or other minority groups (including international students, disadvantaged groups). In the course of the internship the student is supervised and evaluated by the 1) university internship supervisor, and the 2) internship institution external supervisor. In addition, a seminar complements the practical work, given by a university lecturer(24h). The internship seminar requires students' active participation, namely the presentation and discussion of the work developed in the course of the internship.
