Apprenticeship
Internship Assignment and Graduation Application
The Training Internship
The Bachelor's degree program includes the completion of a training internship that replaces the assignment of a thesis: it is discussed as both the internship evaluation and the final exam during the graduation session.
The training internship:
- is mandatory for obtaining the Bachelor's degree, as it is required to earn the university credits (CFU) foreseen in the curriculum;
- has a duration of approximately three months (minimum 375 hours);
- can be requested starting from the second semester of the third year, after earning at least 126 CFU, including any unrecorded course units;
- must be completed before graduation—its completion is a requirement to participate in the graduation session;
- is carried out under the guidance of a Sapienza professor (Internal Supervisor) who oversees the process and the final internship report. The Internal Supervisor must sign the cover page of the internship report.
At the end of the internship, an internship report must be written.
The internship can be:
- Internal
- External
- Recognized (upon request for recognition of extra-university work activities)
Internal Internship:
Carried out with a professor or research group within the University. It is supervised by a Sapienza professor (Internal Supervisor) and includes a project agreed upon with the Supervisor.
External Internship:
Carried out at companies or institutions outside the University. It is conducted under the guidance of an external supervisor (External Supervisor) and supervised by a Sapienza professor (Internal Supervisor). The external internship requires a training project submitted through the TSP Sapienza – Internships and Training portal and approved by the internship committee, coordinated by Prof. Daniele Gorla (gorla@di.uniroma1.it).
Recognized Internship (for extra-university work activities):
Requires defining a project in agreement with Prof. Daniele Gorla, who evaluates whether the extra-university or otherwise coherent activity can be recognized. The internship report must still be written and graduation procedures completed. Contact Prof. Gorla directly for evaluation and, if approved, a tutor (Internal Supervisor) will be assigned.
The external internship must be completed in time for the graduation application and the preparation of the internship report; therefore, it must be concluded no later than the deadline for submitting the report with the cover page signed by the internal supervisor.
