INTERNSHIP PROGRAMME The Internship Programme consists of a 10-week attachment at a business organisation and a 2-week attachment at a Voluntary Welfare Organisation (VWO). 10-week Attachment Students can start their internship anytime after completing two terms during their course of study. This internship must be carried out on a full-time basis. As part of the training, students may source for their own placements, or browse through the online job listing available at the Office of Career Services. Students must submit an overall report to the School on the scope of work and time spent in each company during the attachment. Companies providing the attachment will also feedback to the School on the students' performance. For students on a BBM/ BAcc or BBM/ BSc (ISM) double degree programme, please note that you will need to fulfil the criteria for internship set by the second degree and that would be taken as fulfilling the criteria for the BBM programme as well. 2-week (80-hour) Attachment at a Voluntary Welfare Organisation (VWO) Embarking on a community service project is meaningful yet challenging. As preparation for this project is essential, students are encouraged to start their community service attachment early, preferably in the first year of their study. They may work in more than one organisation (but not more than 3 organisations) to fulfil the 80-hour requirement. Students must submit a written report through SMU OnTRAC after having completed the full 80-hour attachment. Host organisations are required to do a performance appraisal for the students too.
