Internship/Project in Environmental Technology

Base Knowledge

The recommended basic knowledge is the one related to the previous curricular units in the degree.  

Teaching Methodologies

Teaching methodologies are based on active and collaborative learning in order to promote positive interdependence, encourage individual responsibility and autonomous work, improve communication, develop interpersonal skills and support periodic self evaluation and the internship progress assessment. The evaluation includes an informal distributed component resulting from the meetings between all involved persons. It also includes an intercalary progress report with an oral presentation. The improvement suggestions given by the academic supervisor must contribute to enhance the student performance and also the final report to be presented during the final examination (oral presentation followed by discussion).The final report submitted by the student must be validated to guarantee the minimum quality required before the final examination scheduling.

Learning Results

The student that makes an internship must: Acquire work experience in the industrial or institution context; Apply in the field, the knowledge and techniques acquired previously; Work in teams and be an effective communicator; Plan his work, fix targets and goals and establishing priorities in order to accomplish deadlines; Have an interdisciplinary and integrative perspective; Develop personal skills to grow up professionally; Carry on the work in a professional way, respecting the internal rules of the hosting company; Be able to write a clear and objective final report, using a rigorous technical-scientific language. In some cases, and whenever this is the student preference, the Internship can be replaced by a Project to be developed in ISEC.
