| General description |
The Faculty of Science has been succesfully running an internship program since 2005, with an average participation of 50-70 students per year. Every year, our students can conduct internships in private companies or institutions equivalent to 6 or 12 ECTS credits, in exchange for 1 or 2 optional courses.
In order to participate in the internships program, students must:
i) Be enrolled in one of the degrees run by the Faculty of Science.
ii) Have passed courses comprising 120 ECTS credits, including all basic courses.
iii) Participate in the selection process that may be established. Students already having a contractual relationship with the private company or institution offering the internship are not eligible, unless they are granted special permission according to the University of A Coruña (UDC) regulations.
In order to be academically valid, internships must:
a) Be offered through or approved by the Faculty of Science. Positions offered by other institutions (Social Council UDC, UDC Foundation, etc.) must abide by UDC regulations, specially those ensuring equal opportunity and no discrimination.
b) Be filled in a fair process based on merit.
c) Be conducted under the supervision of a qualified professional (BSc, MSc or PhD), preferably in a related field.
d) Obtain a positive report issued by the academic supervisor about the conducted activity, based on the report submitted by the student and the assessment report by the academic and professional supervisors (Annexes III and IV).
The assessment process, prior to the decision of the academic supervisor, will follow all UDC regulations.
