Internship Protocols

The IAC maintains agreements and conventions with various institutions that allow undergraduate and master's degree students to undertake internships at the IAC. Acceptance is subject to legal conditions and the ability to carry out a successful internship, so there are some limitations.

Students from a Spanish university:

- Internships require a valid agreement with the home university.

- The IAC has a standard agreement template that cannot be changed and can only be signed with Spanish universities.

Students from the European Union and ERASMUS partner countries:

- Students must be enrolled as part of an ERASMUS internship program.
- A learning agreement will be signed with the home institution.
- At this time, it is not possible to host students from countries not associated with the ERASMUS program

In both cases:

- Only curricular internships are accepted, never extracurricular ones.

- Currently, only one student per university is admitted. The selection must be made by the home university.

- The IAC does not seek tutors for internships. At most, it will inform its researchers and engineers of the possibility of tutoring an internship and facilitate contact between the parties. If no one at the IAC is interested in tutoring, the internship will not take place.

- The IAC does not cover insurance of any kind (including social security), fees, expenses, or any financial compensation, nor does it carry out any administrative or recruitment procedures beyond those specific to the center.

Other internships:

On an exceptional basis, the IAC may tutor students from other categories.

PhD students:

- Predoctoral researchers from other Spanish or foreign institutions may visit as part of their participation in an active research project at the IAC.

Profesional Training students:

- Similar rules apply to those for undergraduate and master's students. An agreement between the IAC and the home institution is required.

High School students:

- Only remote tutoring is available.
