Curricular Internships in the LM-84 Degree Programme
1. Organizational and Regulatory Framework for Curricular Internships in the LM-84 Degree Programme
For initial guidance and further information, students may contact the Degree Programme Internship Coordinator. During the examination session, the coordinator verifies the accuracy of the documentation certifying the activities completed by students and records the final allocation of ECTS credits (CFU) in the official register.
The Internship Coordinator for the LM-84 Degree Programme is:
Prof. Stefano Palermo
stefano.palermo@uniroma1.it
Internship activities are organized and the corresponding ECTS credits are awarded according to the following equivalence:
25 hours of total trainee commitment = 1 ECTS credit (CFU).
Students enrolled in the LM-84 Degree Programme may begin internship activities from their first year of study.
2. Final Allocation of ECTS Credits in the LM-84 Degree Programme
The final allocation of ECTS credits by the Internship Coordinator is based on the documentation submitted by students during the examination session.
Official documentation consists of:

1. The final certificate/report signed by the host institution where the internship was carried out, countersigned by the Faculty Internship Office, together with the attendance record, as required by the TSP platform;

or, alternatively,

2. A certificate issued by the organizers of other educational activities recognized by the Degree Programme. In this case, certificates must clearly indicate the student's name and registration number, attendance records, and the number of hours completed, and must be duly signed by the organizers.

For credit registration, students must enroll in one of the examination sessions scheduled by the Internship Coordinator and published on Infostud.
Following the instructions received after registering for the examination, students are required to send the official documentation certifying the regular completion of the prescribed activities by email to the Internship Coordinator (Prof. Stefano Palermo) before the examination date.
3. Procedures for Curricular Internships in the LM-84 Degree Programme
a) TSP Platform and Accredited Host Institutions
Internship management is carried out primarily through the University's TSP Portal:
https://uniroma1.tsp.esse3.cineca.it/pub/main-page
Through this platform, students can identify available internship opportunities. The platform is used by host institutions, the Faculty Internship Office, and students for:

• defining the training project;
• organizing internship activities;
• recording working hours;
• certifying completed activities.

Proposals for new internship agreements with institutions not yet listed on the TSP platform must follow the procedures established by University and Faculty regulations. Any collaboration with external institutions or organizations, including newly established partnerships, must be formally certified through the University's TSP platform. All related internships, including newly activated ones, must be managed and documented through the platform.
b) Calls for Applications and International Mobility
Students may participate in internships offered through internal calls for applications or by external organizations officially recognized by the University (for example, the Quirinal Palace Internship Programme, Sapienza 38 Programme, etc.).
Students may also request recognition of activities carried out during Erasmus+ mobility periods as internship credits, in accordance with the provisions established by the relevant calls and regulations.
c) Other Equivalent Educational Activities
The following activities are considered equivalent to Other Educational Activities and may contribute to the acquisition of ECTS credits:
i. Civil Service activities, provided they are consistent with the educational objectives of the degree programme;
ii. Participation in calls, internships, and support activities for University libraries and museums, including student collaboration grants;
iii. Participation in calls for collaboration grants within University facilities, with the exception of laboratories in mathematics, physics, natural sciences, medicine, psychology, and related disciplines.
To be eligible for credit recognition, these activities must be carried out during the student's period of enrolment and academic career.
The Degree Programme may also recognize additional initiatives as equivalent to internships, including but not limited to:

• laboratories;
• workshops;
• seminars and conferences;
• summer schools;
• educational activities organized by the Sapienza Library and Museum System;
• other comparable initiatives.

For each initiative, the number of credits that may be recognized and the participation requirements will be specified.
Certificates attesting participation in these activities are issued by the organizers of the individual initiatives, whom students should contact for further information.
The list of available activities is published on this page and updated periodically.
Please note: activities not included in this list, or not previously approved by the Internship Coordinator, will not be recognized for credit purposes.
