What is a Graduate Internship?

A graduate internship or placement is a short or fixed term period of supervised work experience that is usually related to the graduate's study and/or chosen profession or trade. The work can be full time or part time and take place on or off university campus.  Once the internship has finished, many companies decide to extend the contract or creat a permanent role, however there is no obligation to do so.
