Internships and practical training

If you work in a profession related to your field of study, you can have your internship credited based on your employment. During your studies, you also have the opportunity to take a paid internship. Internship programs are designed by cooperating employers, tailoring requirements to specific positions, which helps you take your first professional steps.

Study completion requirements

You create a major project that addresses a practical or theoretical problem related to your field of study. By studying literature and conducting your own analyses, you work on an original problem-solving proposal. Everything you learn during your studies enables you to create a professional project based on real data and actions. To earn your bachelor’s degree, you must defend this project before a committee. You set the direction of your own project!
