It says that students in Spain can be interns in companies only when they coplete the 50 % of credits to get a degree and are still enrolled at university. At the UA we distinguish: Curricular: Intership is validated as a number of credits according to the degree program.

6. INTER-SHIP: The main objective of this program is to bring the student to a real working atmosphere in order to put into practice the knowledge acquired during the graduate studies. EMPLOYERS participate in the program in order to training the students for future recruitment processes. At the same time students also transmit to the companies knowledges, values and attitudes acquired at University. STUDENTS can take experiences from the business world that help them to clear up the ideas about what the labor market lets them to make with all the knowledge acquired at University, and also to take decision about professional future making use of a real experience. 6 C AREER S ERVICES – GIPE - I NTERNSHIPS.
