At the end of your internship your supervisor at the company has to fill out the external evaluation form. Besides, you need to write a report of your internship. The report contains the following elements:
- Title page, with the title of the report, name of the author, UT and external supervisors, date, company, version number, internship period
- Preface, acknowledgement
- Summary
- Table of contents
- Core of the report
The following framework will give you some guidelines while writing the report. The core of the report consists of:
- Introduction (background, objectives, overview of the report)
- Description of the company
o Write in half A4 something about the department you work in, the place in the organization
- Project description (assignment and your personal tasks and goals)
- Applying academic knowledge and skills (in relation to bachelor’s programme)
- Method and results of the assignment
- Reflection (reflection on personal work, development and process)
- Conclusion
o How do your internship report and the assessment form relate to each other?
You will receive the assessment form that is going to be used for grading your internship by email. Pay particular attention to the different rubrics, so that you are aware of the importance of all aspects and emphasize this in your report. The report must be written in English. Reflection is an obligatory part of the report.
Your report is not a scientific paper and must be between 15 and 18 pages.
Grading
More information can be found in the internship guidelines. This assessment form is going to be used for grading the internship. Pay particular attention to the different rubrics, so you are aware of the importance of all aspects.
After finalizing your report, the student is responsible for sending the report and external evaluation form to programme coordinator Eline Meijerink (e.m.meijerink@utwente.nl). She will make sure your examiner will receive all reports. The examiner will grade your internship. The assessment form that you received will be used, next to your participation during the two meetings and the evaluation form of the company.
Hand your report in on time. The report must be handed in eight weeks after finishing the internship, at the latest. It is strongly recommended you hand it in earlier, for example within two weeks. It is more convenient to hand in earlier to prevent knowledge and experience to fade from your memory.
To summarize, there are two documents you hand in within eight weeks after your internship:
- Internship report
- External evaluation form (filled in by your supervisor at the company)
