Stage Fytopathologie

Binnen de R&D afdeling van Takii Europe houdt fytopathologie zich bezig met het testen van nieuw veredelde gewassen voor hun resistentie niveau tegen bepaalde ziektes. Knolvoet is zo’n ziekte dat galvorming geeft in de wortels van kool (Brassicaceae) gewassen. Vatbare planten krijgen daardoor een groeiachterstand en kunnen dus niet meer verkocht worden. Aan jou de taak om een nieuwe methode te ontwikkelen voor het sneller scoren van kolen die veredeld zijn voor knolvoet resistentie.

Internship research into internal involvement

I live in De Kwakel and regularly passed Takii Europe. The striking logo made me curious, what exactly are they doing there? I got the chance to conduct an internal survey among all employees. This research was all about internal involvement. During the research, I was well supervised. The employees within Takii want to help each other and especially think along with you. This allowed me to develop my research better. Ultimately, based on all the insights, I wrote a recommendation to connect employees within Takii Europe even more. It is a company where you get so many opportunities to show yourself and where you can contribute ideas. There is a lot of room for personal input, so I didn't feel like an intern. I am grateful for all my experiences, collaborations and advice.

Personal growth, the key to success

Personal growth as a result of the learning process. That's what I stand for. In practice, this means sharing knowledge and stimulating independence to provide room for trial and error. Whether it concerns an internship or a thesis, under the motto 'the journey is more important than the destination', I help students to get the most out of this journey. My mission is successful when an intern looks back with pride on how the goal was achieved and on the development of their knowledge and skills.

Intership analysis of incoming flows at logistics

In 2015 I did an internship at Takii Europe in De Kwakel. I got the tip from a fellow student to contact Takii in my search for an internship company, because of his positive experience. In the Operations department I analyzed all incoming flows/products at logistics and mapped out the route through the company. Due to the annual growth (even then), I have made a report with recommendations for improving this in the future. After my internship I was able to use Takii's network to do a later internship abroad in Portugal. After I later joined Takii, it was very nice to see that my report was used. In the meantime I am working as a Supply Planner so the internship has contributed greatly to the knowledge that I now use daily. In addition to work, there is always room for relaxation, I recommend taking part in one of the table football competitions, for example! During the internship I experienced Takii as flexible and very helpful. There was a lot of support in writing my report, the supervisor was always available and ready when needed. Colleagues from other departments are always open to showing what their work entails, so you get a good idea of ​​all the work.

Challenge and motivate

At Research & Development I supervise interns in the phytopathological (plant diseases) laboratory. Supervising an intern takes quite a lot of time, but I also experience it as added value. For example, an intern can investigate certain problems that you otherwise don't have time for. To achieve a successful internship, I write an internship project in advance with clear goals. The internship must also have added value for the company. Within the internship project, the frameworks have been set by me, but the intern can still steer the project according to his insight and interest. Social interest and the freedom to complete the project as they see fit are challenging and motivating for the intern. In addition, at the start of the internship I ask interns what they would like to learn and we include this in the project. For example, an intern taught herself to program in R-studio on a dataset that she had generated herself. Besides being of practical use, supervising an intern is also very educational and fun! Through the questions an intern asks, you discover ambiguities in protocols or that you have a gap in your knowledge. In addition, I like to see an intern develop during the internship, both practically and personally. In short, I see supervising an intern as a real addition to my daily work and the company.

Laboratory graduation internship

For my internship, I conduct research in the laboratory. My tutor introduced me to Takii and informed me about a vacancy at the phytosanitary lab. I responded immediately. The research I would carry out really appealed to me and I had a positive first impression of the company. I am studying green and biotechnology at Inholland University of Applied Sciences, and doing research on plants fits in well with my studies. Takii employs many scholars who are eager to transfer their knowledge. Many people have been in the business for years and are happy to explain things to you. That makes it so much fun to work here. Every colleague will think along with you. The departments also work closely together, creating a pleasant atmosphere at work. The internship supervisor has experience with supervising students and can therefore provide good guidance. A lot of space is given to make up your own mind about what you want to do. That is very nice and it also prepares you well for the future work field.
