Internship opportunities

The final semester of the GIOCA Master Program consists of a project work based on a deep-contact experience within an artistic or cultural organization or in public or private administration. The project work, elaborated under a supervisor’s guidance, will be the topic of the final thesis.

The internship/project work provides an opportunity for all students to enhance their academic knowledge with field experience, related to their career interest, in a variety of settings.
Students enrolled in GIOCA will be given a detailed guideline to apply for internships at the end of the first year.

GIOCA will provide some scholarships to cover the expenses for those students doing an internship abroad, according to the projects presented by students and their relevance for the preparation of the final dissertation.
