Internships
Mandatory and optional internship
Students enrolled in the Bachelor's degree program in Law may undertake an internship lasting up to three months. Internships must be completed outside of the academic year, between September 1 and August 31 each year. For first-year students (L1) enrolled in the Bachelor's degree program in Law, LOSI, or LOSC, internships may only be undertaken after the end of the second semester exams. The internship must be documented in the form of an "internship report." The optional internship does not result in a grade or the awarding of ECTS credits. It is included in the diploma supplement accompanying the Bachelor's degree in Law.
Looking for an internship is a personal endeavor.
Optional internships taking place during university vacations have a minimum duration of 1 month and a maximum duration of 3 months.
However, students who are repeating a year and have completed a full semester may be authorized to undertake a "gap year internship."
