Internships and Formative Activities

The Programme for the Master of Science in “Mechatronics Engineering” includes 6 credits for Internships and Formative Activities.

A curricular internship helps students grow during their university careers.
Students can carry out curricular internships to acquire University Credits (CFU) provided by the study plan, which must be completed before the student obtains his degree.
Curricular internships are carried out in the University’s internal or external structure. There may be a reimbursement of expenses.

 

METHOD OF CARRYING OUT (for EXTERNAL INTERNSHIPS)

Internships are activated with an Internship Agreement between the University and the Company/Institution. The agreements are implemented by completing and signing a specific contract drawn up according to the Ministerial Decree of 25 March 1998, n. 142.

This agreement must be formalized with the university before the internship begins.

If you want to activate a training and orientation internship, contact us at internship@mechatronics.uniroma2.it.

Interested parties involved in the agreement (for EXTERNAL INTERNSHIPS)

  1. The University (promoter for the activation of the internship)
  2. The intern or trainee (student)
  3. The host (The company)
  4. University Tutor
  5. Company Tutor

Interested parties involved in the agreement (for INTERNAL INTERNSHIPS at the University of Rome Tor Vergata)

  1. The Department (promoter for the activation of the internship)
  2. The intern or trainee (student)
  3. University Tutor

The company and the promoting institution are both required to appoint a tutor. The tutor, indicated by the promoter, supervises the proper conduct of the internship in the company.
The company tutor has a training function, supporting the trainee’s learning path.

PROCEDURE FOR INTERN

The Student can apply for an internship only when some exams are missing; therefore, it is possible to apply for it almost at the end of his studies.

The university tutor follows the student during his internship, which lasts at most six months. At the end of the training, the student draws up a report indicating the work done and the skills acquired. The report is delivered to the tutor.

The internship contract is a document formulated in two parts: The agreement and the Training Project.
