For example, a degree course should be entered as: “MSc Urban Development – Cities, Poverty and its Alleviation”. An internship should include the organisation’s name as in the example below.

year of graduation, followed by a line break. You can now copy and paste a maximum of
around 200 words of your Retrospective. This is the text readers see when your Retrospective is not in full view.
PLEASE NOTE: You can edit online but we strongly recommend you write your Retrospective using a word processor first, and then copy and paste your text.
