QREC Internship

About QREC Internship

In principle, the QREC internship may be taken in the year in which the QREC certificate of completion becomes available (e.g., if two credits of elective courses and the QREC internship later in the year satisfy the requirements for the certificate of completion). Internship placements are to be found by the student on his/her own, with the advice of the faculty member in charge.

The work journal during the internship period and the debriefing session after the internship are subject to evaluation and can earn 2 credits. For details, guidance will be provided on an individual basis.

For syllabus and course registration, please refer to the Registration and Flow of Courses page.
