"Internships include working with government or private organizations, higher education institutions, universities, research and development labs/research organizations/non-government organizations, enterprises, centers involved in research, innovation, and entrepreneurship, business organizations, local industries, artists, craftspeople, and similar entities, providing opportunities for students to actively engage in on-site experiential learning," the guidelines state.
