Internship
TOTAL
This is an internship linked either to Research and Development or
related to the marketing of Agricultural Equipment. Placed at the
end of the first year of the Master, the placement is prepared for
through the courses in documentary research and the study
project. Students will demonstrate their ability to understand a
problem, to realize a proper study and so to formulate and
validate hypotheses. The internship will lead to the drafting of a
final report. The internship may be carried out in a company or in
a research center.
