Intern Programme

If you are an Electrical Engineering or Computer Science undergraduate and have some free time in 2012, the Joburg Centre for Software Engineering (JCSE) invites you to join its:

The JCSE intern programme is designed to provide work-experience and a learning opportunity to undergraduate students in ICT-related disciplines. Any Wits University student academically excluded after completing their 2^nd or 3^rd year or that has a "light load" in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science will be eligible to apply for the intern programme. This will provide you with real work experience and an income while enabling you to complete your studies.

Each intern will be mentored by a postgraduate student and will have access to the the JCSE's laboratories and other facilities .

MEET THE INTERNS OF 2010

From left to right: Peter Brookstein, Rantho Malekgene (Sonia), Thato Selebogo, Palesa Mokwena, Tamsen Emmerich and Kirti Nathoo.

Peter Brookstein
"I am a friendly and outgoing person who enjoys indulging in extreme sports and outdoor adventure's. I'm currently completing my BSc. Electrical Engineering degree (Information Eng Option) through Wits, and I enjoy tough challenges from intense problem solving to making an effort to go out on winter weekends in order to snowboard in Africa."

Rantho Malekgene (Sonia)
"I am my own person, I believe in what I believe in and keep going for what I dream of achieving, I sometimes see through people so it makes it hard to be carefree, since this is my wish to just live life like nothing matters, but once I open myself to people I want it to stay that way but if this does not work I just detach. I think I am an idealist sometimes but not getting the ideal in life does not discourage me. I believe in the impossible which usually become possible, in the cases that they don't become possible it is usually because I found a something more intriguing and challenging."

Thato Selebogo
" I am currently studying Bsc(Eng)(Electrical) at Wits University and I am excited to be part of the JCSE Student Internship Programme. I am passionate about using technology (especially electronics and IT) to improve lives in the third world. In my spare time I  read, watch soccer and movies. I also enjoy long distance running."

Palesa mokwena

Tamsen Emmerich
"I am currently completing my BEng (Electrical) at Wits University. I am an approachable friendly person with a lot of perseverance and am looking forward to the year ahead as a JCSE student intern. I expect to learn a great deal."

Kirti Nathoo
"I am currently studying for a BSc in Electrical and Information Engineering at WITS.
