Traineeship

The traineeship, or stage, is a period of orientation and training, carried out in a work context, public or private, to facilitate your entry into the world of work.

Internship, or internship, is a period of orientation and training, carried out in a public or private work setting to facilitate your entry into the world of work.

The curricular internship consists of a period of training - of a maximum duration of 12 months, for each course of study cycle - carried out in a company, entity or institution, which allows you to complete and supplement your university course:

• has an educational purpose, in that it allows you to deepen, verify and extend the learning received during your course of study
• has an orientation purpose, in that it allows you to enter the world of work, to know internally the business reality and organizational/work dynamics and to assume greater awareness in professional choices
• does not take the form of an employment relationship
• must be included in the curriculum

Attention: curricular internships, activated during the Degree Course, are now managed by the platform Student Curricular Activities: Internship and Thesis

At the moment, however, the platform does not manage the recognition of CFUs in careers.

At the end of the internship period you will have to submit the following documentation to the Student Desk:

• statement from the company stating the internship period and an indication of successful completion
• hour sheet completed and signed by you and the company mentor
