Internship
Course Code: INTERN
ECTS Credits: 30.0
Description
The internship offers Applied Data Science & Artificial Intelligence (ADS&AI) students the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills in a real-world setting, gaining valuable work experience while contributing to professional projects. By spending a significant period within a company or organization, students strengthen their technical, analytical, and communication competencies, and deepen their understanding of the data science and AI landscape in practice.
Internships are an integral part of our curriculum, designed to enhance employability and foster meaningful industry engagement. Whether in the Netherlands or abroad, students are encouraged to explore domains that align with their interests and aspirations. A successful internship lays the foundation for final-year projects, future employment, or further specialization.
