The SCIT Internship Programme offers an immersible work experience while students are still in the process of completing their studies. It is flexible, as students can do the internship anytime within the academic year which includes semester one (September -December), semester two (January - May) and the summer session (May-August). Our students become eligible for Internship opportunities after they have completed the first two years of their course of study and have demonstrated competence in that discipline.

Students are required to complete 320 hours of work experience. 

The completion of the module must not exceed one academic year. 

The internship module (if selected) can be used as either additional credits or as a SCIT upper elective.

• Must be a 3rd or 4th year student in the School of Computing and Information Technology
