Student Internships Undergraduate Students here at Elysion University are given every opportunity to succeed not only in their academic careers, but also beyond their degree and into the real world. Some classes have internships that are available to do at Elysion University; these internships are compulsory for students, especially in their final years of study. There are also some internships which are strongly recommended that occur outside of Elysion University during the year. Those without a compulsory internship listed below are helped in every way to do an internship, especially during the summer months, but do not have to complete an internship to complete their degree. COMPULSORY IN-HOUSE INTERNSHIPS DADA and Duelling Those completing Defence Against the Dark Arts and/or Duelling degrees must complete an internship at the Security Office during their final two years of their degree at least. Those interested in working for the security office earlier can contact the head of the office and apply, but any earlier than final two years is based on merit alone. Medical Magic When taken on its own, Medical Magic students must work in the Infirmary during all years of their study. For the first three years of their study medical magic students work at least once a week fully supervised by either a member of the medical magic staff, or a healer or nurse working full time in the infirmary. After the three years, unless the medical magic teaching staff feel differently, students do further shifts in the infirmary on their own. Medical Magic with Occlumency: likened to a muggle psychiatry, many students studying both of these degrees will spend the final year of their course working outside of the school concentrating on their Occlumency degree (see below) rather than work in the infirmary. This is, however, a personal choice. Medical Magic with Magical Creatures: likened to veterinary science, students completing both degrees often change work between working at the infirmary and working with Elysion University staff looking after the animals in the Barn. Both must be completed to become a vet. Magical Creatures When taken on its own, Magical Creatures students must work at the Barn for at least two years of their degree, generally taken during their last two years. Education Students taking Education as a degree must complete at least one year as a Teaching Assistant, generally taken during their final year. EU strongly recommends having at least two years of being a TA before graduating, though only one is required. RECOMMENDED OUT OF HOUSE INTERNSHIPS Engineering EU has strong links to Engineering firms both in Greece, and in the surrounding countries, and as such, strongly recommends that Engineering students complete an internship at one of these firms in their final year of study. These internships generally last one year, taken on a part-time basis. Occlumency Occlumency (when taken on its own only; when taken with medical magic as a psychiatry degree, see Medical Magic above), likened to psychology, and students who study Occlumency are encouraged to do something involving psychology at hospitals, within the social work of the ministry, or at private firms during their final year of study. Magical Law Although most of the links to legal firms are outside of Greece (primarily in Britain), or with the Greek Ministry of Magic, EU will do everything it can to help students find an internship with a law firm that they are interested in during their final year of studies. These are only recommended for students in their final year, as before they firms are generally uninterested in students. Media Communications Although not enforceable, students taking a Media Communications major are strongly recommended to work on the Zeus Ledger, the student run newspaper produced at Elysion University. Students outside of this major are also able to join the paper staff. If there are any questions, please ask it here. |
