Internships
A total of three internships are required as part of the PRF degree program. Of these, two internships must be completed during the Bachelor's program and another during the Master's program. On the basis of practical work in various prevention, fitness, and rehabilitation facilities, the students should implement their acquired health-related competencies in professional field-oriented practice. Content-related, methodological, and organizational experience will be acquired by guiding and supervising a wide variety of target groups with different indications. The knowledge acquired during the program is applied by solving problems independently in professional practice.
Students are free to choose the internship facilities. It is strongly recommended to clarify the choice of the internship facility with the respective contact person before starting the internship. Information on current openings is provided by the Student Representatives of the Institute of Human Movement Science and Health, the online job portal of the TU Chemnitz, and the mailing list Sports Jobs. All necessary documents for the internship (internship agreement and confirmation) can be downloaded here. The internship agreement must be submitted to the responsible contact person before the start of the internship.
Internships in the Bachelor's degree program Prevention, Rehabilitation and Fitness Sports
Module: VM 1 Theory and practice of fitness sports
Duration: 4 weeks (consecutively or throughout the semester)
Examination: Internship report (approx. 10 pages)
As the first internship, the prevention and fitness internship halfway through the Bachelor's degree program in PRF provides an insight into job-related sports practice. Initially with healthy subjects and sports groups, practical sports experience gained in the first semesters should be implemented in prevention and fitness sports facilities with different age and target groups. Gaining practical experience in prevention and fitness sports is also part of DVGS training and can be credited towards the acquisition of various licenses. A successful internship and internship report are still prerequisites for admission to the module examination.
