Course unit content

Students may apply for a stage period at numerical or experimental laboratories of the Department of Engineering and Architecture of University of Parma to get in touch with a work context. The activities at the university laboratories will be agreed upon by the university tutor and the company tutor (a senior engineer or a master geologist or chemist researcher or professor of University of Parma).
Students can choose the field of activity and the sector at which carry out the activity by referring to the disciplines present in the department through direct contacts with the reference teaching staff and with the Study Course delegate for the stages.
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.
