4.1. Methodological overview

The methodology followed in this course is oriented towards achievement of the learning objectives. It is based on an active methodology in which the students participates in the activities of the internship entity. In this way, the student assumes an active role in his/her training through personal research, direct contact with reality, and experiences as part of a work group. All of this encourages:

• A strong motivation for the student
• A gradual increase in confronting difficulty
• A connection between theoretical abstraction and practical reality
• Self-detection of errors
• Personal student autonomy
• Acquisition of abilities and skills for information search and for research

4.2. Learning tasks

The course includes the following learning tasks:

• Activities carried out during the internship itself (during working time, adapted to the circumstances of the collaborating entity and of the student)

• Follow-up by the internship tutor

• Personalized tutoring sessions with the academic supervisor

• Autonomous work of the student for the elaboration of an intermediate report, a final report and a presentation.

4.3. Syllabus

The schedule for the internship shall be established in consensus between the collaborating entity and the academic supervisor.  It shall be detailed in the Formative Project, following the instructions of section 3.2.

In accordance with current regulation, the internship shall be assessed as 25 hours per academic credit, up to a maximum of 500 hours of internships per academic year.
