Required Documentation
Once students have submitted their information in the Travel Registry, they are then able to upload required supporting documentation. Students will not be permitted to travel without complete and accurate submission of required documentation. It is not possible to upload the documentation prior to completing the Travel Registry. You will be redirected to the document upload page once you have submitted your travel record. All documents have to be in PDF format, and no larger than 2MB in size.
Step 1: For each document, select the type, select the file from the source on your device and then upload the document
Step 2: You will be able to review the documents for completion and accuracy before finalizing them to the Document Management System
All students participating in a placement outside Canada must fill out and complete the forms listed below.
Additional forms required for GINS 3900 or GINS 3901
All students participating in a placement outside Canada must register in an appropriate Carleton course during the term they are on placement. For most BGInS students, this will normally be GINS 3900 (0.5 credits) or GINS 3901 (1.0 credits). BGInS students in the Global Politics Specialization may also register in GPOL 3100, Internship in Global Politics, while students doing a placement in Africa may also register in AFRI 3900, Placement. Students registered in AFRI 3900 should consult the units offering these courses for information about how the course grade will be assigned.
Students registered in GINS 3900 or GINS 3901 must consult with Prof. Marylynn Steckley regarding the academic content of their placement. The grade for their placement course will be assessed by the Instructor. Part of this grade will be based on the workplace supervisor’s assessment of the student’s performance on the job. This assessment must be completed by the supervisor at the end of the placement, using the Employer Assessment Form below.
