International Internships
The School of Law is strongly committed to providing its students with the comprehensive and qualifying training that results from international mobility experiences. In this context, it encourages and promotes various types of international internships, depending on the objectives and the student's profile, within the scope of the Erasmus+ Programme, Free Mobility or the Curricular Internships Program at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Students who carry out these internships may benefit, for this purpose, from an Erasmus+ grant, if the internship takes place in a country covered by this program (eg, Member States of the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Macedonia, Turkey), as well as a possible reduction in tuition fees during the mobility period.
Recognition of these internships stems from enrollment in the diploma supplement, when curricular value is not recognized. All students enrolled in the 2nd cycle of the School of Law can apply for the following types of international internships:
