Overview
The internship was split into two phases. Firstly the audit had to be conducted, this required walking round campus to specific rooms and collecting the data on an Ipad. This would be automatically uploaded to an Excel document. Once complete, using the excel document we were required to find and highlight any major differences between what was expected from the Audit and what was actually found and any other statistics that may be of use.

Business Insight
It was very interesting seeing the 'behind the scenes' operations of the university that I wouldn't think twice about if I hadn't completed the internship.
Culture
For the majority of the internship we were left to our own devices, able to work from home where possible, but from what I did experience the culture was an incredibly friendly one and eager to help however possible.
Your Impressions
Thoroughly. Being on my feet all day for the first part of the internship and going to areas of the campus that I never would otherwise was very enjoyable. It was also a nice feeling knowing that work I completed will actually be used to improve the university.
Yes
From an internship perspective, I would suggest tailoring your application/CV to show how what your studying is relevant to what you'll be doing as an intern. Also describe to them how your going to make the most of the experience once graduated.
