IUT STUDENTS
Most students take a two-year HND-equivalent diploma called B.U.T (Bachelor Universitaire de Technologie).
Whatever their department, IUT students are used to :
- working in groups
- developing their ability to adapt to different situations in the business world
- working on practical projects in direct relation with businesses.
WORK PLACEMENTS
What does the placement consist in ?
All students have to do work placements to complete their degree. The aim is for them to get hands-on experience and put into practice what they have learnt at college. Typical dates are, for the second-year placement, from early April until mid June (8 to 10 weeks minimum) ; for third-year degree level, early February until late May (12 to 16 weeks min).
Students should be given an assignment in relation to their degree and not just take part in the daily activities of the organisation, although this can obviously be part of the placement.
How do the organisation and the IUT interact ?
Before the placement
We can help you recruit your intern according to your needs, by short-listing applicants among our students.
The assignement can be discussed prior to the placement between the organisation and the teaching staff at the IUT.
The placement is confirmed by a training agreement signed by the organisation, the student and the IUT.
During the placement
Once the placement is confirmed, each student is assigned an academic tutor at the IUT, whose role is to make sure the placement is going well and to help the student with academic requirements, i.e. completing a report and an oral presentation that are particularly significant in the students’ final assessment.
Within the organisation, the intern will also have a supervisor.
The IUT tutor will either call or visit the supervisor during the placement.
