The final part of your bachelor's programme is a research internship of 8 weeks that gives you the opportunity to apply all the knowledge and skills that you acquired over the last three years. The internship not only is a proof of competence, is also gives you a first, hands on, insight in doing scientific research. In general, lab courses are not representative and give you only a partial impression of research. Also, the bachelor internship can help you choose a master specialisation.
Usually, the bachelors internship is done at the university because it is your first experience participating in actual research. However, it is alway possible to look for an external internship after consulting with your student advisor.
