Some ‘essential’ skills are an inherent part of being able to conduct research and produce expected outcomes in the research internship.
Possessing essential skills will help you progress to the shortlisting and interview stage but does not guarantee you an internship as candidates will be interviewed and selected by the industry partner.
If you are missing skills that are ‘desirable’ or ‘preferable’ or you believe you possess enough of the required skills to competently complete the project, speak to your supervisor about your suitability and consider applying.
