Internship Opportunities
The local and overseas internship opportunities offered by the University and the School of Business give students hands-on work experiences in various fields. Business-related internship can enhance students' competitiveness for employment and future advancement. Over 60% of BBA students have participated in 1 to 3 local / overseas internship programmes during their 4-year university life.
The School offers three credit-bearing elective courses for students to complete a work assignment under the guidance of both faculty and workplace supervisors. Table below shows the full list of courses offered in AY 2023-24 and the respective course coordinators.
Non-credit bearing internship programmes offered by the University allow students to gain work experience in local companies or overseas cities such as Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Singapore, the U.S.A. or the U.K. during the summer:
Every summer, over 50 BBA students intern in overseas destinations. Every year, nearly 100 BBA students join these programmes with financial support.
The Citi-HKCSS Community Intern Program (CIP) is an annual summer internship programme organized by The Hong Kong Council of Social Service for more than 770 student interns in past 10 years. The Programme allows student interns to contribute knowledge and expertise to NPO, and the ultimate aim is to cultivate the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility and to provide future business professionals with a broadened understanding of the community.
In CIP 2021, a total of 78 students, of which 15 of them are from BU BBA, have completed their internship and served the community in 40 non-government organizations and social enterprises.
Our MKTG Year 3 student Miss Chan Lok Yan Kary received the Ward for Excellence from the Citi-HKCSS Community Intern Program (CIP) in summer 2021. The Award is given to interns who have demonstrated outstanding contributions to their placement organizations.
