If you have completed a programming activity of at least 90 hours in the context of a working student activity, an assistant activity or an industrial internship, this can be recognized on application as a programming internship or as a specialization internship. The chairperson of the Examination Committee or the deputy will decide whether an activity is suitable for recognition. The recognition of an activity in the company of a family member is of course excluded.

2. After you have completed the activity amounting to at least 90 h, fill out the application form.It is important that you describe the tasks performed as precisely as possible. If the text field is not sufficient, please attach further explanations to the application. These must also bear the signature of the company or the chair.
3. The completed application must be co-signed by the company / chair holder, confirming the accuracy of the information. In addition, an email address must be entered for any queries.
4. The application, together with a copy of the employment contract or internship contract, must be submitted by mail (studienberatung-ai@rub.de) to the Student Advisor who conducts the initial review. In case of a positive vote, the application will be forwarded to the chairperson of the Examination Committee or the deputy for a decision.
5. In the case of a positive decision, the performance will be entered in Flexnow by the Examination Office. In the case of a rejection, you will receive a corresponding notice by mail with information on how to appeal.
