Supervised Internship
A Supervised Internship is what allows us to experience, safely and dynamically, the practices of the field you choose.
The Supervised Internship, a complementary activity of the undergraduate program, gives students direct experience with their future profession. In this context, they have the opportunity to put into practice the knowledge acquired throughout the program.
As an integral part of academic education, this activity is carried out under the guidance of a professor, who is responsible for supervising the activities carried out in the workplace. Students are challenged to perform tasks that require applying the theoretical concepts learned during their studies.
By serving as a channel to experience the real profession and put what was learned in the undergraduate program to use in everyday settings, the supervised internship offers the opportunity to shadow experienced professionals, gradually helping to build a solid repertoire of experiences. This process of acquiring skills over time prepares students to enter the job market confidently and fully qualified.
