Learning objectives
Knowledge and understanding
Knowledge of how engineering companies plan and manage their activities; enrichment of its technical background. Understanding of the technical, economics, and management needs of the engineering 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 year.
Course unit content
Students may apply for a stage period at engineering companies, Public Agency, Municipalities, industries to get in touch with a work context. The activities at the company will be
agreed upon by the university tutor and the company tutor (a senior
engineer or a laureate in affine sectors).
Students may select stage opportunities in a list of companies available at the Department's office or may suggest a topic and a company by themselves, and getting the university tutor and the company tutor in touch.
In both cases, they must first get in touch with the responsible for the
Stages for the LIET engineering course.
The activation must be completed on the web page
https://www.unipr.it/tirocini-curriculari-online.
For each ECTS credit, 25 hours of stage are foreseen.
