NGR90033 – Internship: Student Guide
10 Task 4 – Final Report
The Final Report is a detailed analysis of the learning experience that has been your internship. It will
explain your role in the host organisation, what has been accomplished, and what has been have learnt.
10.1 Length, submission and marks
• The Final Report must be no more than 8000 words in total. The Final Report should consist of the
following:
o An executive summary (maximum 400 words)
o The body of the report – the introduction to the conclusion, inclusive (maximum 5000
words)
o The appendices
It is expected that most students will write around 4000 words for the body of the report.
o It is expected that students will typically spend approximately 25 hours on the report to
achieve a passing mark.
• The Final Report is to be submitted using Turnitin through the subject LMS site.
• The Final Report is worth 50% of the subject mark.
• The Final Report will receive a mark out of 100.
10.2 Audience
Your Final Report will only be read by the Melbourne School of Engineering academic and coordination
staff. This will allow you to fully express yourself in relation to your personal and professional
development. Information reported in your Final Report will not be shared with your employer or student
peers.
10.3 Description
Your internship has been a rare opportunity to experience the industry environment while still studying.
Within this environment you have been given responsibilities, performed work to benefit others and
interacted with a wide range of people. The Final Report is a deep reflection on this experience. If done
properly you will better understand what you have learnt and can use this learning in the future,
particularly when you begin seeking graduate employment.
The objective of your report is to inform your reader:
• about the environment you worked in and the role that you held;
• how the communication and teamwork requirements differ between an industry environment and
a university environment;
• how you applied your university learning; and
• how you developed your communication and other professional skills.
Your report is expected to be a demonstration of your written communication capability. It should be clear,
concise, focused and informative.
10.3.1 Appendices – Engagement Reports
The Engagement Reports do not have to be included in your appendices. These should only be included if
they are referred to by the main body of your report.

2. How the organization’s structure or structures differ to those in your university
environment and the significance of this.
3. The tasks you were engaged in and your associated achievements.
4. The impact of the work you were involved in, in relation to both your host
organization and other stakeholders.
5. The quality, information and other management systems used in your host
organization, why they were used and how they impacted the work that you
did.

Knowledge and
Methods
(20%)
A clear explanation of the key skills, knowledge and methods that you have used to do
the following:
1. Solve complex technical problems set within broad contextual constraints.

4. What related skills you will need to develop before becoming an effective
practicing engineer
This criterion directly relates to the EA competencies associated with Engineering
Application Ability (2.1, 2.3 & 2.4) and the related C&IS graduate attributes.
3 These may be “projects” of any size, typically for interns these will range from individual tasks assigned to you, to
small team projects. Conducting and managing may involve multiple tasks.
