The proposal is radically different from curricular apprenticeships or internships planned in other courses, since the activities in which the student is involved are integrated from the beginning into the university path, and it is aimed to gain predefined and consistent professional skills. The student with LM+ will attend 5 semesters instead of the canonical 4, 2 of which as a training period within a company, in Italy or abroad. Classes that have been opened till now are: Advanced Biotechnology - Chemicals - Electronic Engineering - Philosophy - International Business and Entrepreneurship. Bio Basic Europe is delighted to announce to have joined the panel of 30 companies willing to host and train the deserving students who will apply for an internship in our company starting from the next academic year 2016-17.
