developed, considering all aspects of their experience from
what they feel they did well and what they learned to where
they could improve in the future. You may begin to see UCD
Advantage listed on CV’s and job applications.
Advantage requires students to evidence their development through
reflection across four key themes in line with UCD Strategy:
• Personal and Professional Development

• Cultural Engagement
• Health and Wellbeing

UCD Internship Programmes
U
CD has an extensive range of programmes across all colleges, both at undergraduate and postgraduate level,
that include an internship as an integrated part of student study. This provides a valuable opportunity for
organisations [large and small, commercial, NGO’s or not for profit entities, etc.] to draw from a talented
pool of students at an early stage in their careers. Organisations that provide internship opportunities to UCD
students gain positively from the experience:
• Interns can be assessed for their potential to fill future positions.
• S tudents can be assigned to undertake specific tasks or work projects as needed.
• Students bring new and updated skills and fresh ideas to the workplace.
• E ngagement with UCD increases the potential to develop linkages and collaborations across other areas within
the University.
The Calendar for Internship Programmes opposite depicts the range of programmes with integrated internships
across the six colleges in UCD. In each case the availability of students is highlighted. In a number of cases, where
student interns from a group of related programmes are available to hosts at the same time, the programmes
are identified as a programme group. These groups are listed separately here: a breakdown of the individual
programmes that form part of a group is provided.
