Mitos y realidades en las prácticas de MU MICONE - [Myths and realities in MA MICONE]

Abstract

- MA in Conference Interpreting Business Oriented (MICONE) at the University of Alcalá includes the compulsory subject Internships (6 ECTS) in companies or organizations after signing an educational agreement. The restrictions on mobility and attendance due to the COVID 19 pandemic, as well as the cancellation of congresses, fairs, or business meetings made it necessary to look for other alternatives so that students in the 2020-2021 academic year could complete their studies. This proposal presents the experience carried out with the MA MICONE and the research group GIECO to complete the students´ internships, and the evaluation of the results.
