Organisational remarks and main changes to the course

You can find some additional information from the faculty here: https://www.facsa.uliege.be/cms/c_3178752/fr/facsa-stages 

Professors (or permanent scientists) propose internship subjects they would be willing to sponsor academically. These subjects emanate from companies or research centers. Students can propose subjects, but these subjects must be approved by an academic sponsor.

A non-exhaustive list of subjects is available on the website http://www.fsasurvey.ulg.ac.be/tfe/list.php. The webpage https://www.montefiore.uliege.be/cms/c_3747743/en/montefiore-internship-master-thesis also lists companies that regularly propose internships in the field of electrical engineering and computer science.

Students' University registration must be complete by the time they start the internship.

Before the internship begins, the student has to send the completed internship agreement and the risk analysis form (cf. https://www.facsa.uliege.be/cms/c_3178752/fr/facsa-stages) to the internship coordinator.
