Internship
The Faculty of Economics, within the degree programme, provides the possibility, without obligation, of activating a curricular internship. 8 ECTS are allocated for this activity (minimum duration 220 hours).
An internship helps students enter the working world by giving them real-world experience with what they have learned in class. It’s a chance to try out different tasks, understand what working in a particular role is like, and see if it matches their interests.
This experience helps students grow both professionally and personally, adding valuable skills and insights to their studies and strengthening their overall education.
Career opportunities
The programme offers knowledge, skills and competencies particularly valuable to pursuing careers in organizations such as:
- Healthcare delivery organizations (e.g. hospitals, local health authorities, residential care)
- Healthcare industries (e.g. pharmaceuticals, biotech and medical devices)
