Internships are a key element in your education. Gaining practical experience after what you’ve learned in your degree is the best way to enter the job market.
There are two types of internships: curricular (included in your study plan) and extracurricular (which you can do voluntarily). To participate in a curricular internship, you need to have completed 50% of your credits and register for the corresponding course before starting the internship.
These internships involve monitoring by both the company and the internship supervisor, as well as the completion of a final report for evaluation. If you want to enhance your work experience before finishing your degree, you can undertake extracurricular internships.
These can be done at any stage of your studies, but keep in mind that internships are a complement to your academic training; therefore, the more knowledge you have acquired throughout your degree, the more you will benefit from the internship experience. You can consult the regulations here.
In the Bachelor's Degree in Tourism and Leisure Management, you will gain professional skills in managing tourism and leisure activities and discover the various career paths that this field offers. Curricular internships are an essential part of your education.
