Internship (938M9)

15 credits, Level 7 (Masters)

Spring teaching

The internship option enables you to spend three months working on a project within an NGO, regulatory body, business or other suitable organisation that has an active interest in analysing and tackling corruption.

You will be expected to spend three to four days per week working with the organisation. You will be expected to write a report based on what you did and how it links in to the theoretical analysis of corruption.

Note that although we typically place most students who request an internship, this is not guaranteed.

Assessment

We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2023/24. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.
