Course Content
They work in the industry like engineers. Building upon the theoretical and practical training they receive at university, they are directly trained for industry applications, preparing them to enter the sector as engineers. They spend all their time at the company, just like an employee working in the industry.
Objectives of the Course
The goal of engineering education is for fourth-year students to spend one semester (approximately 15 weeks uninterrupted) in the industry. Beyond a simple internship, students are expected to work and participate in projects as engineers in the sector.
