During the internship: integrative module

Throughout the internship, students must maintain a record of all the activities approved in the training project by filling in the hours survey form with the company tutor (this form can be found online in the forms section), indicating the days and times worked, and a brief description of the activities carried out. The form must be submitted upon conclusion of the internship to allow the recognition of the CFUs.

Attention:

1) the hours that can be accounted for are exclusively those carried out within the period of activity indicated in the training project signed and uploaded to AlmaLaurea
2) it is not possible to carry out and report more than 8 hours of activity per day
3) the signature and stamp of the host company / institution must be on the same page as the hours reported (not on separate pages or on uncompleted pages of the form) and if there is more than one page, these must all be stamped and / or signed. 

Integrating the internship

For their university course, students can integrate the training internship with an extra 150 hours of activities; these are worth 6CFUs. They are free to choose from the activities available, and this brings the total number of hours of the internship to 300, corresponding to 12 CFUs; all the activities should be carried out without interruption and in the same firm or company. The integrated stage must be approved by the person in charge of the Course (this could be the university tutor).

If the company asks or advises the student to integrate the stage, the student is required to send the following documents to the Student Administration Office (they should be sent via “Filo diretto“) :

1. the Application form to the Rector, (available in the forms section) to which the revenue stamp must NOT be affixed, indicating the request to activate the supplementary internship and specifying the free-choice examination to be replaced.
2. a letter from the host company, which explains in detail the characteristics and methods of carrying out the project, and the reasons why a 150-hour internship is insufficient.                          
3. a report drawn up by the student in which the aims and objectives to be pursued by means of the extension of the internship are indicated in detail;

The Student Administration Office will then send the request to the internship manager and communicate the outcome of the evaluation to the student; in the event of approval, the supplementary internship form will be included as a supernumerary activity in the student's study plan, and the company can extend the duration of the training project that is already active on the AlmaLaurea portal until the agreed 300 hours have been completed.

Please note:
–  the entire request process and the approval for the integrated stage period (which normally necessitates 7-15 days) has to take place during the internship period indicated in the training project. If necessary, the company tutor must also request an extension through the AlmaLaurea portal: the extension must be requested at least 4 days before the end of the project, and no later.
 

– the integrated stage MUST NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE STUDY PLAN before it has been approved! Once approved, students can ask for it to be included in their study plan; they can also indicate the free-choice teaching activity which is being substituted; all this should be done via “Filo diretto“.
