Student Internship Programme


The Student Internship Programme (SIP) is an important component of our diploma courses, whereby our students are deployed to work in companies or institutions in the industry – whether locally or overseas – for about 4 to 6 months.  It exposes our students to real working environments where they are challenged to handle actual problems and develop skills such as effective communication and interpersonal skills in the workplace.


In a win-win situation, our industry partners also benefit from our student interns’ contribution to their company, as well as from the opportunity to identify prospective full-time employees.


For more information, please visit the main Student Internship Programme (SIP) webpage and browse through the SIP FAQ.

Student Testimonials


 

"I am grateful for the mentorship I received during my internship in Melbourne as a facility officer. My mentor had provided guidance, support, and valuable feedback that helped me grow both personally and professionally. For example, while I was able to complete my assigned tasks efficiently, I tended to overlook potential issues that could arise in the future. He suggested that I start thinking proactively and anticipate potential problems and come up with solutions before they occur. I took his feedback and started to implement the suggestions which helped me to become more aware of potential issues and helped me to become more proactive in my approach to facility management."

"I am deeply grateful for the mentorship I received during my internship in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I had the opportunity to work as a researcher intern. I am deeply thankful to my mentors and supervisors for their unwavering assistance and mentorship. Whether project support or sharing meals together, their guidance significantly enhanced our learning experience and personal growth during these four months.

During my internship in Chiang Mai, I was tasked with various responsibilities in research projects and event coordination. One aspect of my experience at Adicet in Chiang Mai that stood out is the emphasis on experiential learning. From internship to research projects, I had numerous opportunities to apply classroom theories to real-world scenarios, deepening my understanding and enhancing my problem-solving abilities. These hands-on experiences have been instrumental in shaping my academic and professional journey."

"The internship with Govtech has been an invaluable experience that has significantly enriched my professional journey. Throughout my time here, I had the opportunity to work alongside seasoned professionals who have not only shared their expertise but also fostered a supportive learning environment.

One of the highlights of my internship was being involved in meaningful tasks that allowed me to apply classroom knowledge to address real-world challenges. Whether it was modifying user interface according to product backlog, analysing data for our business users, or contributing to team meetings, every task helped me develop practical skills and gain a deeper understanding of the industry.

Moreover, the mentorship I received was exceptional. My supervisors were always approachable and offered guidance, feedback, and encouragement every step of the way. Their mentorship not only enhanced my technical abilities but also taught me the importance of collaboration, communication, and adaptability in a professional setting.

I am grateful for the opportunities that this internship has provided me, from networking with industry professionals to gaining insights into the day-to-day operations of a successful company. It has been a transformative experience that has undoubtedly prepared me for future endeavours in my career field."
