Internship
The training and orientation internship is a training practice in organizational structures (institutions, companies, etc.) that offers learners the opportunity for a first approach to the world of work in view of future employment choices. The University evaluates the activities of the period of stay in the company as a complement to the classroom learning process and individual study.
The Internship and Traineeship Committee for the Rome campus is composed of the Academic Tutor, the Coordinator of the Undergraduate Degree Programme and the Coordinator of the Graduate Degree Programme.
The project internship (curricular internship with credits) is included among the applied knowledge indicated in the Faculty Guide and is chosen by the student.
How to log in
Students who wish to opt for the project internship can choose it as an alternative to the computer lab and the advanced English language course, by submitting a specific application available on the I-catt website. The conditions for submitting the application are the achievement of at least 48 ECTS or 72 ECTS in relation to the deadline for the submission of internship applications. In the months of October and April of each academic year, the Internship Committee draws up, with the collaboration of the Offices, a list of candidates who meet the requirements for the activation of the project internship.
