EU students will be required to be in possession of the European Health Insurance Card, Non-EU students will be required to obtain their own medical insurance in order to receive their Schengen Visa. In addition to medical insurance, EUSA requires all interns to add a Civil Responsibility Insurance to cover any possible situations at the work-place. This type of insurance needs to be approved by both the internship company and EUSA. Participants may opt to obtain both medical and civil responsibility coverage themselves or through EUSA at an additional price. EUSA will charge a minimum of 150.00 EUR for Civil Responsibilty and a minimum of 100.00 EUR for medical insurance. (These prices cover the standard 4-week period, additional fees will apply for additional months).

EUSA faculty is accredited and habilitated to teach at the Higher Education level through University of Seville’s Venia Docendi.

All EUSA degree students may opt to participate in our Emprésate programme, targeting student employability through unpaid internships in local companies. Our International Educational Internships are adapted from our degree internships to the needs of our international students, accommodating to their academic requirements.

Career Centre: Our career services department, Emprésate 360º, targets enhancing occupational opportunities of our students through internship experiences in a varied range of companies and institutions. By learning to face problems, taking on responsibility and developing their own initiative, these students will enhance their full potential and employability options.

Credit Transfer: International students wishing to participate in an internship through EUSA will need to provide the requirements of the internship they want to take part in for credit transferability at their home institutions.
