The internship Directorate is mandated to coordinate the cooperative arrangement between a private or government institution and the school, that allows students to apply their knowledge and skills in a professional setting.

The Internship Program is a natural extension of KNUST's "learning by doing" educational philosophy.

Therefore, the Directorate liaise with College internship offices to ensure that every student that graduates from KNUST has the basic skills to function effectively in the workplace of his or her chosen field.

The Directorate is spearheaded by an Internship Director and three other deputies.
