Interships
Internships are a key component of your training. Acquiring experience after what you have learnt in your degree is the best way to enter the employment market. There are two types of internships: curricular—which are included in your study plan—and extracurricular—which you can do on a voluntary basis.
In order to complete curricular internships in companies, you will need to have 50% of the credits approved and registered before starting your internship. These internships are monitored by the company and the internship coordinator, and interim and final reports are prepared for evaluation.
If you want to take your work experience to the next level before finishing your university education, you can pursue an extracurricular internship. You can do them in any academic year, but keep in mind that internships are a formative complement to your studies; therefore, the more knowledge you have acquired throughout your studies, the more you will benefit from the internship experience.
The UEV has 3,600 educational cooperation agreements with other centers.
There are two types of internships when studying ADE in Valencia:
Compulsory (Curricular).
450 hours of compulsory internships, in companies in Spain or abroad, which take place over a period of three or four months in the 3rd and 4th years.
Voluntary (Extracurricular)
From the 3rd year onwards.
