Internships

The curricular internship is a temporary practical experience (2 ECTS) that students can carry out at a university facility within the same Department of Chemical Sciences, or at a company or affiliated institution (http://www.cof.unict.it/content/aziendeenti-convenzionati). It is mandatory for the achievement of the 2 ECTS associated with it and can be carried out either at the same facility or at a different institution from the one where the training period for the preparation of the thesis, which is part of the final exam (an additional 4 ECTS), is taking place. For the search of companies willing to host interns for the curricular internship (2 ECTS), for the training period for thesis preparation (4 ECTS), or for both, the students are encouraged to visit the Federchimica website and the EUNICE Internship and Research Stays -EIR- portal.

To start the curricular internship at affiliated institutions, students must submit specific forms, which can be obtained from the Academic Secretariat.

Upon completion of the internship activity, the student must submit a "final report" to the Academic Secretariat, countersigned by the supervisor and, if applicable, the company tutor, for subsequent registration in the academic record, after review by the Program Director.
