The UMM Internship Program is officially open. This is an internship program awarded and conducted by The University of Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM) Indonesia for postgraduates to gain valuable international experiences in Indonesia including (1) learning of Indonesian language and exposure to Indonesian cultures, (2) teaching strategy courses and research, and (3) practical training at UMM. Learning Bahasa Indonesia and getting exposed to unique Indonesian cultures will open up a vast archipelago of some of the friendliest and most hospitable people. Challenging yet rewarding cultural experience will invite interns to think outside of the comfort zone and engage in unique values and practices.
The learning to teach opportunities will be available across a range of disciplines related to the work of teaching and learning process at UMM including; Engineering, Economic and Business, Political and Social Sciences, Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, Education, Psychology, Law, Islamic Education, Health Sciences, and Medical Sciences.
Interns will work closely with an appointed supervisor at the same time acting as the co-teacher, teachers of Bahasa Indonesia classes, and institutionally engaged IRO staff.
The Program will be for a period of 20 weeks (one semester), and can be proposed by interns with a recommendation from the department/faculty to be extended to another 20 weeks. The decisions as to whether an extension will be granted are at the sole discretion of the university.
Interns will be responsibly engaged in institutionally approved projects that are meaningful to both the UMM and the intern’s learning and development. Duties may include but not limited to:
· attending Bahasa Indonesia classes;
· learning to teach suitable department(s) at UMM;
· supporting UMM’s academic and non-academic (cultural) functions;
