written by Khumbudzo Makhoshi<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is Khumbudzo Makhoshi, im a master\u2019s Student, University of Johannesburg. When I left Johannesburg in January 2026, I thought the biggest challenge of my internship would be the science. I was wrong. The first challenge was the cold. One moment I was standing in a South African summer, and the next I was stepping into the Arctic winter of Troms\u00f8, Norway, where the temperature had dropped to \u201315\u00b0C. The freezing air shocked me immediately, but so did the beauty of the Arctic landscape. Snow-covered streets, frozen mountains leading to the fjords, colourful houses glowing beneath winter skies, and later, the unforgettable sight of the northern lights made me realise that this experience would become far more than an academic internship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internship Experience and Academic Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My internship took place at UiT The Arctic University of Norway between February and March 2026 as part of the GeoInternInternational project. Upon arrival I was warmly welcomed by Helge Vogt, who kindly showed me around before taking me to the guesthouse. The internship focused on phase petrology and thermodynamic modelling in metamorphic studies under the supervision of Professor Jiri Konopasek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The core of my internship involved learning and applying Perple_X, a thermodynamic modelling software used to calculate stable mineral assemblages under varying pressure and temperature conditions. At first, the software was intimidating and the learning curve was steep but i gradually became comfortable with the workflow and learned how powerful the software truly is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before using the software itself, Professor Jiri ensured that we understood the scientific foundations behind the calculations. We studied stable mineral assemblages, univariant reactions, the Schreinemakers method, and the principles of Gibbs free energy minimisation. As the internship progressed, I began generating pressure-temperature pseudosections for my own rock samples and interpreting how mineral assemblages changed under different metamorphic conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daily Life During the Internship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Life in Troms\u00f8 followed a rhythm that balanced academic work with cultural and personal experiences. Most mornings began with a walk through the snow-covered streets<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to campus, surrounded by Arctic scenery unlike anything I had experienced before. My afternoons were usually spent in the laboratory working with the Perple_X software, troubleshooting calculations, interpreting diagrams, and discussing results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside the laboratory, the internship allowed me to experience the Arctic in unforgettable ways. I visited a glacier on Kval\u00f8ya island with Helge, attended a football match to support the Troms\u00f8 home team, explored the city with fellow interns, Thomas and Amilie. I learned how to ski with Helge, falling more times than I could count, the experience was both humbling and enjoyable. One of the most memorable moments of my stay was seeing the northern lights dancing across the Arctic sky. Standing beneath those green and purple lights felt surreal and reminded me how extraordinary this experienced truly was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another meaningful part of the internship was the kindness and hospitality I received from the people around me. Helge and his family welcomed me warmly for supper, making me feel less like a visitor and more like part of a community. These experiences showed me that international internships are not only about scientific learning but also about cultural exchange, friendship, and personal growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skills and Competencies Applied<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My background in geology at the University of Johannesburg played an important role in helping me adapt to the internship. Knowledge gained from undergraduate and postgraduate studies in mineralogy, petrology, and thermodynamics provided a strong foundation for understanding phase equilibria and metamorphic processes. Concepts such as Gibbs free energy, chemical equilibrium, and mineral stability fields became directly applicable during the internship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analytical and problem-solving skills were essential throughout the project. Choosing suitable chemical systems, interpreting phase diagrams, and troubleshooting software errors required patience and logical thinking. The internship also strengthened my communication skills, as I frequently discussed results and uncertainties with Professor Jiri and other researchers. I learned the importance of asking questions, collaborating openly, and approaching scientific problems with both curiosity and persistence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the end of the internship, I had gained confidence in thermodynamic modelling and a deeper understanding of metamorphic petrology. More importantly, the experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

showed me that science is a truly international discipline. Despite coming from different countries and backgrounds, everyone I met shared the same passion for understanding Earth processes. The internship challenged me academically, introduced me to new cultures, and helped me grow both professionally and personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This internship was one of the most valuable experiences of my academic journey so far. It taught me not only advanced scientific skills, but also resilience, adaptability, and the importance of collaboration. From learning thermodynamic modelling to experiencing Arctic life and witnessing the northern lights, every part of this journey left a lasting impact on me. I return to South Africa with new knowledge, stronger confidence, and memories that I will carry throughout my life and career as a geoscientist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
