Hi All,
This is your email to start week 3 of your internship. You are probably getting your head around the concepts and perhaps still feeling a little bit anxious too. That’s OK. Please remember that this is a “best-effort” internship for most of you and we are trying to see how good you really are in a safe environment. Remember, you can always ask your supervisor or me for help.
Many students ask their supervisor questions that could be easily solved within the team. Please read this to find out when and how to send an email to your supervisor to ask a question.
Please look at the key milestones and onboarding emails page.
- Please meet as a team before the meeting without your supervisors to ensure you as a team of students are all on the same page
- Please send a weekly email update 24 hours before the meeting with:
- what each student has done,
- write down any questions you have for the meeting to use as an agenda,
- provide a link to the wiki, and
- provide a link to the technical notes in Sharepoint
- Remember to ask to record the meeting to more easily keep notes if needed
- Document the action items and make sure they are in the weekly email update for next week
Here are a few things you can do:
- You can look at the storage and compute options available at WEHI.
- You can read about the top 5 mistakes that students make
- You can also have a look at the FAQ
- You can learn how to handle a complex and ambiguous project
- You can review your project and look at the available documentation
- You can also use this internship as an opportunity to network
If you have any questions or need further clarification regarding the internship program or the onboarding document, please feel free to reach out to me after you have looked through these documents. We are here to assist you and provide any necessary support.
We are looking forward to working with you and wish you a rewarding and successful internship experience.
Regards,
Rowland Mosbergen
