DESCRIPTION:

Students can get practical experience at the Department of Transport and Public Works through an internship programme. Interns are placed within their specific field of study and are remunerated for the work they perform.

Each intern enters into a contract with the Department.

In 2003 the Peninsula Technikon awarded the Department the top award in the macro employer category, out of 600 private and public institutions, for its role in providing students with experiential training.

INSTRUCTIONS:

To apply for an internship, you must currently be registered at a Higher Education Institute (HEI).

You can contact the Department of Transport and Public Work's Student Affairs Administration Office through the placement officers at your University or Technikon.

You will need to send through a letter confirming that you are registered in a specific field and your CV.

If there is a need for a student specialising in a particular field, the Branch in question will conduct a short interview with applicants and select an intern.

A mentor is assigned to each intern to assist them and verify that they have performed the contracted work.
