The program aims to promote the development of professional identity with an advanced perspective, focusing on management, education, research, and innovation in technical-health contexts. The approach includes: On-the-job learning: immersing students in real operational settings with the support of experienced tutors, allowing direct observation and gradual assumption of responsibilities appropriate to their level. Tutorial support: presence of internship tutors for supervision, along with university tutors and the supervisor of professional activities, who help define objectives, monitor progress, and conduct Guided Study and Critical Reflection: analysis of professional cases and complex situations through problem-solving and decision-making approaches; review of scientific literature and related normative/organizational documentation concerning observed or performed activities. Autonomous Planning and Production: development of an individual project work related to topics such as organization, quality, training, or research. Creation of educational materials (presentations, didactic modules, checklists, assessment tools) or scientific documents (abstracts, posters, bibliographic reviews, scientific articles). The choice of tutors can be made by the student or, upon request, the Internship Coordinator of the Master's Degree Program (CdLM) will identify the tutor based on the project type and possible internship location. The internship tutor assists the student in defining the project, obtaining necessary documents and information, understanding the organizational context; additionally, they certify the proper conduct of the internship and the hours committed. The tutor must hold a position higher in the organizational hierarchy than the student and cannot be simultaneously enrolled as a student in the same CdLM.
