Internships
Internships are a key component of your training. Acquiring experience after what you have learnt in your degree programme 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 must be enrolled in the specific subject of the curriculum that, if applicable, will specify the minimum credits ECTS that the student must have previously passed, as a necessary condition to do the internship. These internships are monitored by the company and the internship coordinator, and they are evaluated by final reports.
If you want to take your work experience to the next level before finishing your university education, you can pursue an extracurricular internship. It’s possible to do internships in any academic year, but keep in mind that they are a complement to your studies; therefore, the more knowledge you acquire throughout your studies, the more you will benefit from the internship.
With more than 600 hours of curricular clinical assistance practices, we provide you with a personal mentor that will allow you to strengthen the competencies and skills necessary for the practice of the profession without supervision. This comprehensive training will allow you to work independently after graduation.
