AMC Internship Program 2025/26
To provide our students with practical hands-on experience in a professional environment and strengthen AMC community's ties with the industry, we are inviting internship opportunities from industry partners with art, technology and / or creative background. Get the chance to help nurture future Art-Tech professionals set to ride the new wave of AI and creative technology.
General Information
The AMC Internship Program is a credit-bearing program for AMC students. To fulfill the credit requirement, students must complete a minimum of 150 hours of duty during their internship.
We generally expect each student undertaking the internship to be assigned a mentor or supervisor with relevant background and expertise. The mentor or supervisor will provide appropriate training in relevant skills and areas, offer guidance and support throughout the internship, and regularly assess the student’s performance.

Procedures
- Interested employers may begin by submitting the Employer Contact Form. Our Internship Coordinators will then reach out to discuss details such as job requirements and information sessions.
- When issuing an offer to one of our students or signing any internship-related agreements, the student will be asked to provide AMC Office with the necessary details and relevant electronic copies for our record.
- At the end of the internship, the student will be required to submit the Final Evaluation Form to the mentor / supervisor for completion on behalf of the employer. The form is intended for assessing the student's overall performance and readiness for the industry. The completed form should be submitted directly to AMC Office, either electronically or by mail.
- Should any issues with the student arise during the internship, we strongly recommend contacting AMC Office or the responsible Internship Coordinator first for consultation, to ensure the best possible solution for all parties involved.
- AMC reserves the right to terminate internships where it is found that adequate support and / or training is not being provided to students concerned.
- The credit-bearing course AMCC 6110 Professional Practice and Research (Internships) is offered only in the Spring and Summer Terms.
- AMC will announce internship opportunities with industry partners from time to time. You are also encouraged to actively seek opportunities by contacting target companies directly.
- Before accepting an offer, please complete the AMCC 6110 Internship Pre-approval Form to obtain approval from AMC Office. An electronic copy of any documents signed subsequently should also be submitted to AMC Office for our record.
- By the end of the internship period, you are required to complete the authorization section (Part I) of the Final Evaluation Form and forward it to your mentor / supervisor for their evaluation of your overall performance.
FAQ
- I'm an MA student. Can I take up a full-time internship offer during Fall or Spring Terms?
> Yes. You are required to apply for Leave from Study before the start of the regular study Term where you want to take up full-time employment. Once approved by AMC Office, you may proceed to take up the full-time internship. Please bear in mind you may also need to apply for extension of your student visa if you have yet to fulfill all graduation requirements. - How about MPhil or PhD students?
> Full-time RPg students must obtain approval from their supervisor and AMC PG Coordinator before taking up any form of employment. Please refer to the Handbook for Research Postgraduate Studies - Study Commitment for details. - I have completed eligible internships in previous Terms. Can I still get the credits for this course then?
> You may apply for Course Substitution and provide all necessary materials for assessment.
