Media Faculty

Creativity, critical thinking and social responsibility - that's the Media Faculty!

Internship office

The Internship Office is responsible for all questions regarding the internship semester. The head of the Internship Office is Prof. Dr. Frank Habann. For formal questions, for example about the registration of the internship semester, the secretariat of the respective study program is available.

General information on the educational goals of the internship semester as well as all central documents and forms (internship contract, notes on the internship report, etc.) can be found in the information material section of the Internship Office. If you are unsure whether your internship meets at least one of the objectives, contact Prof. Habann.

What do I need to know before starting the internship?

  • IMPORTANT: Only hand in a copy of the internship contract to the responsible secretariat (not to Prof. Habann) or send it by e-mail (do not forget your matriculation number!).  Upload here for internships in winter semester 2024/25     
  • That is all you need to do at the beginning.
  • Some companies require a confirmation that the internship semester is a mandatory internship. This confirmation is issued by the responsible secretariat.
  • The internship does not have to correspond 1:1 to the semester time. It is advisable, however, that it ends at the beginning of the next lecture period, so that you still have enough time for the report. If this is not feasible in an internship, please contact Prof. Habann.

What has to be considered after the internship?

  • UPLOAD the report and internship certificate (information on what the report must look like can be found here under “Infomaterial...”) to the Moodle course of the semester in which you completed your internship!
  • Upload here for internships in winter semester 2024/25
  • Also the locked reports, with the note in the file name: locked
  • The deadline for Media faculty internship reports from the 2024/25 winter semester is four weeks after the start of classes in summer semester 2025, which is 14.04.2025 at 24:00 h. Other deadlines for this at the university have no validity for the faculty Media. If blocked by the company, report only by email OR printed in the Post Office Box to Prof. Habann.
  • This deadline also applies to the submission of the internship report (copy) to the responsible secretariat. If the company is unable to produce the certificate by the deadline, a simple internship confirmation (stating the period of time) must be submitted for the time being. The certificate can then be submitted later, also after the deadline.
  • AND: the short summary does NOT have to be created until further notice.
