What is an internship?
The Curricular Internship with credits (ECTS) is required by the teaching regulations of the programmes of the School of Banking, Finance and Insurance Sciences.
It consists of a full-fledged teaching activity, although it is a period that the student spends in the company in close contact with professionals. Therefore, it must be approved as such by the School Tutor before its beginning.
The Curricular Internship does not constitute a work activity in any way but is an integral part of the training programme.
