Abstract:
As a student of the Department of Journalism, Media & Communication at Daffodil
International University I am supposed to work in an organization for two to three months
at intern position relevant to my academics. Objective of this internship was to bridge
between academic knowledge with industrial practice. After a while I got an opportunity
to work with Public Relations Office of Daffodil International University (DIU).
Internship Report on “Working Experience at Daffodil International University as Public
Relations Office Team Member” required by my academic supervisor Mr. Aftab Hossain,
Assistant Professor and Head, Department of Journalism, Media & Communication. The
purpose of this report is to describe my learnings and experiences during my internship
period at DIU.
An internship is a period of time where a student or recent graduate gains real-world
experience. I got an opportunity to work with DIU, a leading private university in
Bangladesh. I have worked there as Public Relations Office member under the
supervision of the Deputy Director of the institution Ms. Amena Hasan Ana.
I have participated on the team and worked with all kinds of DIU events. I now know
what an educational institution does. I have worked with the team on writing,
videography, and other promotional tools, participated in events, seminars, and
workshops run by the DIU, and generated a variety of documents. My coworkers have
taught me organizational behavior.
Throughout my internship, I encountered a wide range of situations. My technical
knowledge of research methodology, development approaches, communication
interventions, and communication tools and strategies improved as a result of working
with the DIU PR team. The skills I learned throughout this internship period were time
management, taking ownership of my actions and decisions, and working in a diverse
team. I have experience working with several different ICT products and approaches,
including Microsoft Office, photo and video editing programs, and others.
