Before the internship

Before the internship begins, the student and the company tutor must agree on the contents of the training project. It is the intern's responsibility to upload their training project in their reserved area on the Department's website at least 15 days before the start of the internship.

• The internship location (or locations, if it will be conducted in a mixed in-person/remote mode)
• The training objectives
• The activities to be assigned to the intern: detailed description of the activities to be carried out (office, procedures, projects, documents, etc.)
• Any facilities granted by the host institution (expense reimbursement, meal vouchers, access to the company cafeteria, etc.)
• The dates and the precise timetable of the internship
• The name and email of the company tutor
• Number of employees at the internship location

Companies/Institutions not yet affiliated with the University or with an expiring agreement are informed by the office via email regarding any additional steps.

Following the submission of the training project, the office handles the start of the internship, the activation of insurance coverage, and the assignment of the academic tutor.

The intern is notified by automatic email about the processing steps of their application.

At the end of the process, the office shares the internship documents in PDF format with the intern via email.
