Internship Legal Research

Content

For the Legal Resarch Master, it is possible to do an internship as part of your ‘profile area’, i.e. as one of the three electives. As such it is possible to obtain 7.5 ECTS for your internship, provided that the following conditions are met:

• The internship is relevant for the development of your research profile;
• The Dean of the Legal Research Master (who also acts as coordinator for the internships) approves of the use of the internship as an elective. To obtain approval, you should complete the internship approval form (goedkeuringsformulier), which can be downloaded from the LRM Blackboard page, and send it to the Dean of the Legal Research Master by e-mail (Ms prof. dr. J.H. (Janneke) Gerards, j.h.gerards@uu.nl).
• The minimum duration of the internship is 6 weeks full-time or 30 days part-time (with a weekly minimum of 3 days’ work);
• You receive supervision from the internship location and from a member of the academic staff of Utrecht University (to be approved by the Dean of the Legal Research Master);
• At the end of your internship, your supervisor at the internship location completes the evaluation form (evaluatieformulier), available on Blackboard;
• You write an internship report (minimum 1500 words, maximum 2000 words) describing your activities and learning experiences, and connecting your internship to your research profile, to be assessed by your supervisor from Utrecht University.
