How do I get my internship recognized and accredited to my Master’s degree?
Once you have successfully completed your internship of at least 240 working hours at a place of work related to the topics of the Master’s program, you must submit a request for accreditation to the head of the examination board at humangeoexam@geo.fu-berlin.de.
This submission must include:
- Proof of work (for instance in the form of an internship certificate or „Praktikumszeugnis“) that confirms a at least 240 working hours in total over a specified period of time; this equates to for example a full-time position (forty weekly hours) of six weeks, or a part time position (20 weekly hours) of three months. These hours must be clearly specified as such in your proof of work!
- A short description of the organization or place of work and of your role or tasks included during the internship
- The name and signature of your superior(s) / head of department / head of working group to confirm your proof of work
