AI2162 Internship Continuous Assessment 12.0 credits

This 12-credit module forms an integral part of the structured learning in entrepreneurship at KTH. The program provides an opportunity for undergraduate students to immerse in Stockholm’s entrepreneurial environment by undergoing a 1-year internship at a technology-based company.

The module measures the student’s overall performance in the program (both on and outside the internship) over the 1-year duration.

Throughout the program period, students will document their internship work experience, lessons learned and new ideas and insights generated in the course of their internship in a logbook. The logbook will serve as a useful basis for regular interactions and discussions with their assigned consulting professors. Consulting professors will meet with the students and their host company representatives at least once every 3 months to

• review the student’s performance to-date; 
• provide feedback to students to further improve their performance; and
• review internship training objectives and revise/fine-tune goals and directions where necessary.

After completing the course, the student should be able to:
