It is important that it has a wet signature. The wet signed document must be scanned and attached to the application documents.

Deliverables to be submitted after the internship is completed;

1.Internship Report: It is the report whose format and content are defined on the web page of the department in order to process all the work, duties and responsibilities of the student during the internship by specifying the day and time and to attach the relevant documents. Reports should be prepared based on the internship report preparation guide. Internship reports are prepared in computer environment and submitted to the internship commission WITHIN THE REGISTRATION DAYS specified in the academic calendar at the beginning of the semester following the semester in which the internship is done. Information about registration is shared on the announcements section of our web page and our social media account.

Workplace Intern Student Evaluation Form and Workplace Internship Evaluation Form for ICM Students must be attached to the end of the internship report. These two forms should be filled out and scanned with wet signature, attached to the end of the report and uploaded to the moodle system in PDF format.

If the internship reports are not submitted within the specified period, the internship is considered as not completed.

Information about the submission of internship reports will be announced separately by the department during the process.

Important Notes:

Students who will take courses in summer school should make sure that their internship dates do not coincide with the summer school academic calendar.

Official holidays (holidays, etc.) should be taken into account when determining the internship dates, and holidays should not coincide with the internship time.

Since Internship Courses are prerequisite, 2 internships cannot be done at the same time, the next internship must be done in the following year.

Internships abroad are not accepted due to the fact that accident insurance is not covered.

Internship reports must be uploaded to the relevant module via moodle system within the specified periods.

The information in the internship reports of the students who have done their internships in the same company should not be the same, except for the information about the company. The fact that the internship was done in the same place does not mean that the experiences and gains gained are exactly the same. Identical reports will be considered as copies and the grade will be evaluated as “U-Fail”.

No information in the internship report should be copied from the internet. If the information is deemed necessary, the website must be cited and a bibliography section must be created and information must be given. Any information (company information, definitions, etc.) obtained from any source such as the internet should be added as source information at the end of the relevant article. Otherwise, the commission has the right to accept the internship as unsuccessful (U) due to plagiarism.

The internship report should be prepared following the headings given in the Internship File Preparation Guide. Each item in the guide is a heading (section). The required information should be added under these headings. Reports must be prepared and submitted without missing sections. Sections cannot be short texts of one or two sentences, detailed explanations must be made and the texts must be supported by explanatory visuals.

The internship done in the summer semester 2024-2025 must be entered into the UNACS system as one of the courses taken during the course registration process for the Fall Semester 2025-2026 (Internships will be done in the summer semester, but will be selected as a course in the fall semester and the grade you get from the internship will be reflected on your fall semester transcript).

While determining the internship site, attention should be paid to the appropriateness of the content of the internship and care should be taken to choose an internship site that will enable the internship period to be carried out efficiently.
