Considering the connection to the professional world to be a fundamental element of academic and human formation, it is envisaged that any student enrolled on the BA in Political Science and International Relations, the MA in Governance, Leadership and Democracy Studies, and the MA and PhD Programme in Political Science and International Relations: Security and Defence, will be able to undertake an extracurricular internship that allows direct and practical contact with the challenges of working life. In addition to the opportunity for a first work experience, the aim is to encourage students to broaden their horizons by getting closer to national and international institutions and companies, as well as to enhance their Curriculum Vitae.

IEP has weekly office hours (regular or by appointment) to provide all the information and draw up a personalised internship plan for students interested in an internship.
