Students primarily work on a defined task or internship project in a professional environment within the field of Agricultural Sciences. By doing so, they apply the subject-specific, method-specific, social, and personal competencies acquired during their studies in their daily work and further develop and deepen them. Additionally, they reflect upon and present their internship experiences.
Learning objective
The students will set their own learning and working goals, and reflect on learning and work performance within the framework of their internship provider.
