FASS Internship Programme
The FASS Internship Programme (FASS IP) is a structured internship programme that is managed by the FASS Dean's Office through NUS TalentConnect. It is open to students whose first major is from the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, and it aims to provide FASS students the opportunity to pursue an internship in a company or organisation as part of their undergraduate study. Interested students will need to secure a position and contact the FASS IP Administrator to register for a course.
Students who are registered for a course will submit journal entries and other written reports, and meet with an Academic Advisor and Workplace Supervisor. Through the process, students will be exposed to corporate culture, sharpen soft skills, practice what they have learned in the classroom, and gain useful work experience.
Starting from Semester 1 of AY2022/23, we will increase the courses offered under FASS IP from three to six. Please refer to the Overview of Courses for more information.
