Course content

The course aims to give students insight into the practical everyday life within the sports field. Examples of what is included in the sports field can be clubs, sports teams, local or national federations, municipalities, and county councils. Through the internship, the students will try their hand at the role of researcher with the intention of providing knowledge that the internship can use in their practice.

The students must be out in their internship two days a week for 8-10 weeks throughout the semester, and gain insight into the "daily" work tasks in the internship field, and contribute as a professional in the relevant environment. The content of the internship is developed and laid down in an internship plan in collaboration between a contact person from the relevant internship, the student and the course supervisor.
