Selection criteria will be established and, prior to enrollment, a personalised interview will be carried out in order to admit or not the students to the Practicum.

Objectives and Contextualisation

External internships are intended to put students in contact with certain professional environments. In addition, they offer the possibility of opening research to a very emerging field in the performing arts: the processes (creative, pedagogical, production, etc.) that precede the result. The internships will be carried out in companies and institutions in both the public and private sectors: theatrical infrastructures, television production companies, theatre production companies, dance companies, theatre companies, educational centers, cultural and social associations, public administrations, scenography workshops, media.

Content

The purpose of external internships is to put students in contact with certain professional environments (artistic, pedagogical, production...). They offer the possibility of opening research to an emerging field such as creative processes, which precede the result. These internships are carried out in companies or institutions in both the public and private sectors: theatre production companies, dance or theatre companies, television, educational centers, cultural and social associations, scenographers' workshops, etc.

The Institut del Teatre is responsible for establishing and signing the agreement with the institutions where these internships take place.
