Internship is a key learning component of the FinTech Application Program, aimed at helping students apply classroom knowledge to real-world industry settings, gain early exposure to workplace operations, accumulate practical experience, and prepare for further studies or future employment.
Through curriculum planning and program design, the department guides students to participate in internships at appropriate stages of their learning, making practical experience an integral part of the academic journey rather than an additional burden.
Through the internship program, students can achieve the following learning objectives:
Apply financial, technological, and cross-domain knowledge in real work scenarios
Understand the operational models of FinTech-related industries
Develop workplace communication, problem-solving, and teamwork skills
Explore personal career paths early and build a foundation for future development
It is generally recommended that students participate in internships after acquiring a certain level of professional foundation to ensure effective learning outcomes.
Most students typically engage in internships:
