Support for entering the workforce
Are you interested in doing an internship? Would you like some guidance to help you prepare for your career?
To help each student develop a career plan and successfully transition into the workforce, SCUIO-IP offers a variety of services and initiatives through the Office of Career Services (BAIP).
Are you interested in doing an internship as part of your studies?
Internships are an integral part of the university curriculum. They are governed by specific regulations (the Act of July 10, 2014, aimed at promoting the development and supervision of internships and improving the status of interns; the Decree of November 27, 2014).
The timing and duration of internships vary across programs at the University of Montpellier depending on their educational objectives. Please contact the internship office or the academic affairs office of the academic unit associated with your program for details on how your internship will be organized.
Preparing for an internship search
The process of finding an internship is becoming increasingly similar to a job search, requiring students to be well-prepared:
- think about the purpose of the internship
- carefully determine the placement structure
- utilize the various tools needed for the process (researching information, preparing a resume and cover letter, preparing for interviews, etc.)
- work with their academic advisor and internship supervisor at the host organization to clearly define the tasks and skills to be acquired during the internship
The SCUIO-IP team (University Joint Service for Information, Career Guidance, and Professional Integration) is available to any student looking for an internship, whether for personalized advice or through group workshops.

Internship Agreement
To streamline the management and tracking of internships, the University of Montpellier has implemented a digital tool called PStage, which allows students to access their [Digital Workspace | https://ent.umontpellier.fr] to complete, edit, and submit their internship agreements for signature. The internship office or the academic affairs office of the academic unit associated with your program is your point of contact for information regarding the approval and signature process for your internship agreements.
In France, interns must be paid for internships lasting more than two months. Internships are governed by the Law of July 10, 2014, and the Decree of November 27, 2014 (Articles L124-1 through L124-20 and D124-1 through D124-9 of the Education Code).
