The Internship (PA) is a significant activity in Higher Education, serving as a fundamental means of connecting theory with practice. It actively contributes both to the application and consolidation of knowledge, skills, and abilities acquired by students within academic programs, and to the smooth integration of graduates into the job market.
The curriculum of the Department of Humanities (DH) at Democritus University of Thrace (DUTH) includes internship courses. The “Internship” course is offered in the 4th year of studies in the Department.
Specifically:
a. In the “Philology, History, and Anthropology” (PHA) program, the internship is offered as an Elective Course (EE) in the 7th semester (first part) and the 8th semester (second part) of studies with the code PA and 5 ECTS credits. It is also offered as a Compulsory Course (C) in the 7th and 8th semesters with the code PA and 5 ECTS credits for students who wish to receive a Certificate of Pedagogical and Teaching Proficiency upon graduation.

Student internships are conducted in host institutions such as public services, legal entities under public or private law, Local Government Organizations at the first and second levels, and businesses, under the supervision of the Department’s faculty or staff (DEP/EDIP/ETEP members). By placing students in various organizations and institutions, the aim is to establish collaboration between the Department and the operational environment. Undergraduate students participate in the internship based on the process outlined in this regulation.
