At present, internships are a mandatory part of
the architecture and planning course.
Apart from this, many diploma
students are opting for a voluntary internship abroad and
may get
finance for it through the German Academic Exchange service
(
DAAD:
www.daad.de or InWent
www.inwent.org/
).
PAR is offering advice and directions of offices possibly suitable for internships abroad.
