Professional Internships
External internship regulations
Internships are a key element of your training. Gaining experience after learning skills during your degree is the best way to enter the job market. There are two types of internships: curricular (included in your curriculum) and extracurricular (which you can do on a voluntary basis).
To take part in curricular internships in companies, you must have passed 50% of the credits and enrolled for the subject before starting the internship. These internships are conducted with monitoring by the company and by the internship professor, as well as intermediate and final assessment reports.
If you want to gain more work experience before finishing your university training, you can complete extracurricular internships. You may complete an extracurricular internship during any academic year, but remember that internships are complementary to your studies, so the more knowledge you have acquired over the course of your degree programme, the better you will be able to benefit from your internship experience.
