Internship

Students at the Security Risk Management programme have the opportunity to replace elective elements with an academic internship corresponding to 15 or 30 ECTS.

The purpose of the academic internship is to enable students to gain knowledge, experience and insights into ‘security risk management in practice’. The aim is that students, by their presence and active participation in performing relevant task(s) in a workplace, become able to apply their theoretical knowledge in a practical context. Internship sites for Security Risk Management students are very diverse, ranging from government agencies, private companies and NGOs involved in security issues. The academic internship is concluded with an academic paper assessed by a supervisor from the department.
