Internships

As part of the Bachelor's course, students have the option of an internship for which 6 ECTS credits may be awarded.

Internships have the following main features:

• Internships are open to students who have completed the first and second year of their Bachelor's. They are also open to students who repeat the 2nd year.
• The proposed internship must be approved by a HEC Lausanne professor who agrees to assess the internship. The assessment is made essentially on the basis of a report on the internship.
• The internship should be equivalent to a minimum of eight weeks, full time, in a single department of a company. Part time work throughout the year cannot be considered as equivalent to an internship.
• Interns should be supervised within the company by a competent and experienced person whose name should be shown in the internship agreement.

The internship agreement should be submitted during the first 15 days of the internship to the Bachelors' administration office. Internships cannot be approved after the event.

The internship agreement form and all the rules and procedures which should be observed during the internship are available below:
