It is strongly recommended that students take them from year 1, but they will only be able to register for the course at the earliest the year in which they present their final graduation project.
Students who have other professional integration activities in their personal programme, or who can demonstrate an equivalent activity could be exempted from this course. This equivalence is at the discretion of the programme commission jury. Another activity should then be chosen to reach the number of ECTS required for their graduation.
