Too Long; Didn't Read
Technical University Darmstadt forces computer science students to do a <em>non-payed</em> practical project for a real company before they are technically allowed to write their bachelor thesis. As I’m currently working at a small startup in the need of developers and I had to do this internship myself two years ago I thought it would actually be fun to lead a small team of developers (4 students in their 5th semester) to do a little side project for us — so we applied and got accepted.
