Internships
In-company internships are a key part of your training. Gaining experience based on what you have learnt in your degree is the best way to enter the job market. There are two types of internships: curricular (included in the curriculum) and extracurricular (those that you can choose to do on a voluntary basis).
In order to do an in-company one, you’ll need to have obtained 50% of the credits and to enrol in the subject before starting your internship. These internships are monitored by the company and the internship professor, and also involve interim and final assessment reports.
During the final year, you’ll do an internship at a key institution, research centre or company in the sector at national and international level, which will allow you to put into practice all the knowledge you have acquired. These include:
- The Foundation for Biomedical Research at the Gregorio Marañón Hospital, the Foundation for Biomedical Research at the Getafe University Hospital and the Toledo Paraplegic Hospital.
- National Centre for Biotechnology (CNB)
- Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)
- Carlos III Institute of Health (ISCIII)
- And in biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies such as Genómica, ERCROS, Lilly, BMS, Quintiles, IVI, Cofares, Febiotec, Bioenergía y Desarrollo Tecnológico, Biotools, Carestream Health Spain, Federación Española de Centros Tecnológicos, IMERETI, Genómica S.A.U., Pharmamar, 3P Biopharmaceuticals, Gamesa Innovation & Technology, General Electric International INC, Jansen Cilag SA, Kantar Health SA, KOM Pharmatec Labs, LABCO Pathology SLU, Laboratorios Alcalá Farma, Laboratorios Medicamentos Internacionales SA, Lilly, Lonza Biologicals Porriño, Medtronic Iberica, Merk Sharp Dohme España, Mönlycke Health Care, Praxis Biopahrma Research Institute, Proteus Research, Roche Pharma, Sanitas SA de Hospitales, Siemens, Star Petroleum SA, Unidad de Reproducción SA, Veolia Water System Iberica and Wyeth Pharma.
- Madrid Science Park, Inkemia
If you would like to improve your work experience before finishing your university studies, you can do an extracurricular internship. You can do one in any academic year, but we would remind you that internships are a training complement to your studies. Therefore, the more knowledge you’ve already acquired over the course of your programme, the more you’ll benefit from the internship experience.
