Risks or safety issues based on which this sequentiality is imposed
Any risk that endangers the physical/mental health of the student, a fellow-student, staff members or other third parties (e.g. patients, internship providers, etc.). This includes a serious risk that the student will cause damage to machinery/equipment in the context of the programme at Hasselt University/tUL which would impede the continuity of education or research.

Module:
- For students with Biomedical Science backgrround (Ba-BMW): 2 internships of equal duration in physics and chemistry (or the industry-oriented internship).
- For the students with non-biomedical background: one internship in either physics or chemistry and one in BIOMED (equal duration internships)
- For students going abroad via Erasmus scholarships: Topics covering 2 disciplines is a prerequisite (e.g., Material development / material characterization for biomedical applications; Development of methods relevant to biomedical science)
The student
- acquires hands-on experience through active participation within the biomedical field
- gains insight in the organization's processes, culture, mission, and values
- can translate and apply theoretical concepts into practical applications
- can independently translate a problem into a relevant research question and can search, select, critically interpret, and summarize relevant scientific literature
- can analyse and report obtained findings in writing and orally to both experts and a wide audience
- can constructively collaborate within an interdisciplinary team
- can proactively seek opportunities to connect with professionals within and outside the organization to build a professional network
- can reflect on their own strengths and areas for improvement, and use feedback to enhance own work and competencies

| Explanation (English) | Students are given an informed choice in October. During the first lecture, they receive information about the content and evaluation of the two types of internships. After this, they make a choice, which is fixed for that academic year.
The grades within each of the internship options are as follows and differ from each other:
Research-oriented junior internship:
- Process: 50% NO resit
- Report: 25% Resit
- Presentation: 25% (10% pitch pop science) Resit
Industry oriented junior internship:
- Process: 40% (rubric process internships) No resit
- Report: 10% (limited content report) Resit
- Presentation: 30% (20% presentation end of internship + 10% vlog) Resit
- Growth and reflection: 20% (follow-up document, intervision) Resit |

|
|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Evaluation is based on 3 elements for the research-oriented internship: practical internship, individual written report and individual oral defence. The internship itself cannot be retaken in the second session, but the report and/or oral defence can.
Evaluation is based on 4 elements for the industry-oriented internship: practical internship, individual written report, individual oral defence and growth and reflection. The internship itself cannot be retaken in the second term, but the report, growth and reflection and/or oral defence can. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | A student that gains a score lower than 10/20 on one or more of the evaluation elements (Practical work, individual written report, growth and reflection (for industry-oriented internships) and individual oral presentation and defense of research results) receives "fail" as final score. |
