The internship is a period of professional training you can carry out as part of your university path. Its purpose is to promote direct knowledge of the world of work, of new and  innovative aspects of the professions, technologies and organisations.

You can carry out the internship in three different ways:

• Internal internship at the University of Trento
• External internship, or training internship in a company or external body (commonly also called "stage")
• Internship abroad, as part of the mobility programme Erasmus.

Internal internship start

Before starting your internship, you are required to::

• have acquired the minimum number of credits.
• find a professor and ask for his or her availability to be your University Tutor for the internship. Agree with the professor on the topic and program of the internship.
• Fill out the Internal Internship activation form form and send it to the Department Secretariat (email at the bottom of this page).

Internal internship conclusion

At the end of the internship period, you are required to:

• prepare a Final internship report and get it signed off by your University Tutor signature. If the internship is an integral part of your final exam project or thesis, you are exempt from writing the final internship report.
• Complete the Internal Internship completion form and get it signed off by your University Tutor.
• Send  the final internship report (if applicable) and the “Internal Internship Completion Certificate” form to the Student Support Service (email at the bottom of this page) by the deadline for submitting graduation.
