Through these different practicum experiences, students were given the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge in actual government operations, strengthen their communication and administrative skills, develop professionalism and teamwork, and gain a deeper understanding of public service.
The 240 hours may have been a requirement, but the lessons, experiences, challenges, and memories gained along the way will become part of our preparation as future public administrators and public servants.
This practicum reflects our commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by promoting quality learning and practical education, preparing students for meaningful work, strengthening our understanding of effective and accountable institutions, and fostering collaboration between students, universities, and government agencies.
