Learning objectives
Knowledge and understanding
Knowledge of how engineering universities plan and manage their activities; enrichment of its technical background. Understanding of the technical, economics, and management needs of the engineering research activities
Applying knowledge and understanding
The student applies the technical knowledge in an operational context and on real cases. He is invited, whenever the conditions are met, to propose modifications to the design solutions.
Making judgements
The student is encouraged to identify the best strategy to solve practical problems
Communication skills
The student has to communicate and act with workers with different background
Learning skills
The student improves the auto-learning capacity, getting in touch with new problem and learning how to manage the new challenges
Prerequisites
Since the stage is supposed to provide the chance to apply engineering expertise in a working environment, the student should apply for it only when he has acquired a good deal of such expertise. Therefore, the stage is scheduled in the last semester of the second year.
Course unit content
Students may apply for a stage period at the Department of Engineering and Architecture in order to support Professors and Researchers in the laboratory activities or in the numerical works. The activity is organized as described in the stage program (progetto formativo) in Agreement with a university tutor and a local researcher which acts as a company tutor.
To activate the stage, the students must first get in touch with the responsible for the internal stages (prof.sa Maria Giovanna Tanda. She will start the stage activation on the web page https://www.unipr.it/tirocini-curriculari-online .
For each ECTS credit, 25 hours of stage are foreseen.
