INTERNSHIP PROCESS
General Information
It is strongly recommended that all students carefully read the ITU-TRNC Internship General Principles document. The guidelines related to the internship can be accessed from the internship section on the ITU-TRNC Student Affairs website or by clicking here.
- All student-approved documents must be uploaded to the ITU portal under the internship procedures section at least 7 days before starting the internship. Internship registrations must be opened at least 15 days before the start date, and all signed contracts must be uploaded to the ITU portal at least 7 days before the start of the internship. Since the 8-day gap is usually insufficient for obtaining all signatures, it is recommended to arrange your internships well in advance, starting at least 1 month before your internship procedures.
- Students undertaking internships during the semester break must ensure that there are no other course registrations during the three full working days.
- Emails regarding internship procedures sent to the ITU-TRNC Student Affairs Internship Unit are evaluated in the order they are received. Due to the number of students in our programs, we may not be able to respond to all emails. Please refrain from sending multiple emails regarding the same issue, as this delays the process.
- In all correspondence with the internship committee, please include your full name, school number, and the program name.
