The utilization of the Supervised Internship in Mechanical Engineering (ENG1158) occurs in two stages. The deadlines for submitting the necessary documents for acceptance are determined by the instructor responsible for the course at the beginning of the academic term and are communicated to students via Moodle. Documents submitted past the deadlines may result in failure in the course.
Only internship hours completed after fulfilling 160 credits will be accepted, which is a prerequisite for the course.
(1) In the first stage, the student needs to fill out a form directly in Moodle, providing information about the company and a brief summary of the activities they will develop.
(2) In the second stage, the student needs to submit the four documents listed in the table below:
| File Name | Content | Where | Format |
| Declaration | Proof of hours completed provided by the company. | Moodle | |
| Term of Commitment | Internship contract. This document is not required for students interning at PUC-Rio. | Moodle | |
| Internship Report | The internship report with a minimum of 10 pages, signed and stamped by the supervisor. | Moodle | |
| 2nd Part CCPE Doc | CCPE Form (2nd part (http://www.ccpe.ctc.puc-rio.br/), 2 pages). | Moodle |
These documents are also evaluated by the NDE of the Mechanical Engineering course.
Incomplete submissions will not be considered.
In the internship report, the student must:
(i) Describe the area of the company where you interned and explain the context/sub-area in which you worked;
(ii) Describe and exemplify the activities you carried out during the internship;
(iii) Present the benefits achieved through your work;
