Internships

The internship in Module D is mandatory and consists of 12 ECTS. It can be completed either locally or abroad. There are two options: a part-time or a full-time work placement. In case of a part-time employment, students can substitute the missing ECTS with workshops from the Viadrina Founders Center (Gründungszentrum) with 1 ECTS equating to 1 workshop (8 hours).
Students should make arrangements for internships on their own. The practical experience should correspond to the study program and refer to digital society. The Viadrina Career Center can also assist in the internship offers. For the recognition, students should provide a confirmation certificate of the completed internship from their employer. The ENS Examination Board is responsible for its acknowledgment.

Master's Thesis

  • As a first step, please send an email to the Examination Office (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) asking for admission to the Master’s thesis. The following modules have to be completed: Module A, Module C (including one course B2), Module D, Module E and at least one Preparatory Colloquium (F). Module B doesn’t have to be completed, but enrollment in the second Preparatory Colloquium (F) is required.
  • If all the criteria are fulfilled, you will receive a form (a "routing slip") from the Examination Office. Please enter your chosen first and second supervisor and let them confirm by signing the document.
  • You have eight weeks for writing your Master’s thesis. The day on which your first supervisor enters your Master’s thesis title on the form marks the first day of this period.
  • Once the title is entered, please hand the form back to the Examination Office to get confirmation of your thesis’ submission date.
  • You need to hand in two paper copies and a digital version of your thesis at the Examination Office by the submission deadline.
  • The supervisors have six weeks to evaluate your master’s thesis. After that, you will agree with them on a date for your oral exam (Final Colloquium).
  • Students doing the double degree should contact the AMU (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) for the specific procedure.
