Before the start of the industrial internship

What you should definitely consider before starting an internship:

Does the company meet the requirements?

  • Sector
  • Industrial company
  • Training company, number of employees
  • etc.

Does the agreed internship content correspond to the required areas of activity of the respective internship regulations and internship guidelines?

The General Internship Guidelines (APr) of Clausthal University of Technology contain the common regulations for the recognition of industrial internships in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs.

Supplementary regulations are set out in the program-specific internship regulations / implementary regulations.

For certain degree programs, a pre-study internship is required for enrollment. Proof (internship certificate or certificate and internship report) of the internship completed must be submitted to the Internship Office for recognition. In order to avoid cases of hardship, it is possible to defer the pre-study internship (deferral). In these cases, an application for deferral must be submitted for enrolment.
Application for deferral of the pre-study internship

If you are unsure, please always consult the Internship Office and read the FAQs.

You can also contact the internship officer of the respective faculty. The type and objectives of the internship activities are agreed and defined with him/her.
