Content

The contents of the subject “External Internship” vary among the different students. Students develop this subject in different companies, so the learned contents vary. At the beginning of the academic year, the students deliver a resume with their abilities, lacks and specific interests to develop their internship in a real company.

Methodology

The students do an internship of 220-250 hours following the curricular practices model. In the signing of the agreement, the student has specific information about the schedule. The internships are developed in the second semester.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The curricular practices are not paid per se. Some companies offer the possibility of paying the student, but many other companies do not offer payment to the intern student.

The health situation could force us to transform face-to-face sessions into online sessions.

Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
