Internships and traineeships

The internship is of fundamental importance for creating a concrete link between the working world and the university environment the student comes from. In fact, this experience represents a significant opportunity to approach the professional world.

Students interested in undertaking a curricular internship are required to send the following documentation by email, at least 6 months before the scheduled date for their thesis defense, to stageplacement@unistrapg.it:

• an updated curriculum vitae
• a self-declaration or a scan of the university record book to verify exams taken

The internship is mandatory and takes place during the final year of the course.

At the end of the internship, the host organization certifies attendance with a specific certificate and states the outcome.
