Durante la realización de las prácticas, los estudiantes tendrán un tutor académico de la Universidad, que deberá ser profesorado de la titulación y un tutor externo de la entidad colaboradora con experiencia profesional y conocimientos necesarios para una tutela efectiva. Al finalizar el período de prácticas, el tutor externo remitirá al tutor académico un informe final y el estudiante elaborará una memoria de prácticas. El tutor académico, a la vista del informe del tutor externo y de la memoria, evaluará las prácticas desarrolladas emitiendo un informe de valoración.
Final Degree Project
Ejercicio original a realizar individualmente y presentar y defender ante un tribunal universitario, consistente en un proyecto en el ámbito de las tecnologías específicas de la Ingeniería Industrial de naturaleza profesional en el que se sinteticen e integren las competencias adquiridas en las enseñanzas.El trabajo Fin de Grado se podrá realizar una vez superados los 204 créditos obligatorios.

Mobility
La movilidad de los/as estudiantes está regulada a través del “Reglamento de intercambios interuniversitarios”. A través de la Oficina de Relaciones Exteriores se gestionan programas de intercambio tanto nacionales (SICUE), como europeos (ERASMUS) y extracomunitarios (intercambios con países de América Latina o países de habla inglesa):
A 2ª edición do grao contempla unha materia de 12 ECTS de prácticas externas. Los estudiantes podrán realizar las prácticas en una empresa con la que la USC tenga firmado previamente un convenio.
El objetivo de las prácticas es completar la formación académica del estudiante mediante la interrelación con el mundo laboral y empresarial, mejorando así tanto la capacitación científica y técnica adquirida en las materias obligatorias del título como sus competencias transversales y habilidades personales, así como saber incorporar los valores profesionales y competencias propias del ámbito de la Ingeniería Técnica Industrial.
Durante la realización de las prácticas, los estudiantes tendrán un tutor académico de la Universidad, que deberá ser profesorado de la titulación y un tutor externo de la entidad colaboradora con experiencia profesional y conocimientos necesarios para una tutela efectiva. Al finalizar el período de prácticas, el tutor externo remitirá al tutor académico un informe final y el estudiante elaborará una memoria de prácticas. El tutor académico, a la vista del informe del tutor externo y de la memoria, evaluará las prácticas desarrolladas emitiendo un informe de valoración.
Ejercicio original a realizar individualmente y presentar y defender ante un tribunal universitario, consistente en un proyecto en el ámbito de las tecnologías específicas de la Ingeniería Industrial de naturaleza profesional en el que se sinteticen e integren las competencias adquiridas en las enseñanzas.El trabajo Fin de Grado se podrá realizar una vez superados los 204 créditos obligatorios. En el momento de la presentación del proyecto el alumno deberá tener superado todos los demás créditos necesarios para la obtención del título (228 ECTS).
