Student internships
These internships are the classic school internships, career exploration days and the Girls' and Boys' Day. These internships can be arranged directly in the relevant organizational units of the university. Anyone interested in an internship can contact the relevant university staff member with their internship request and ask whether supervision is possible.
Each member of staff can decide for themselves, in consultation with their supervisor, whether supervision is possible.
If the school regulations state that a fixed period of time is planned for the internship, it is sufficient to complete the school's certificate. A copy of the completed certificate from the school must be forwarded to the training management department. If the internship period is flexible, an internship contract must be concluded between the university of applied sciences and the student. In these cases, the training management team must be consulted. Prefabricated external internship contracts may not be signed.
Practical semester
When carrying out an internship semester, a distinction is made between students of Fachhochschule Dortmund and students of other universities.
As a rule, only internship semesters are carried out by external students. This may be deviated from in exceptional cases if the internship semester of a student of the Fachhochschule Dortmund is not to be carried out in the organizational unit in which the study program is located.
The remuneration amounts to € 500 per month and is to be financed by the supervising organizational unit.
Students must submit the following documents before concluding the internship contract:
- Curriculum vitae
- Certificate of study
- Proof of the obligation to complete the internship (excerpt from study or examination regulations)
- If applicable, work permit for non-EU citizens
- Tax ID
- Pension insurance number
- Bank details
- Health insurance certificate

Internships for the preparation of the Bachelor's or Master's thesis are not remunerated.
