!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Informazioni tirocini curriculari !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LEGGERE BENE PRIMA DI INTRAPRENDERE PERCORSO TIROCINIO
I tirocini/stage per EACT curriculari (cioè da svolgere prima della tesi) che possono essere aggiunti al piano carriera hanno un massimo di 75h, ovvero 3 cfu. Si possono aggiungere ulteriori 6 CFU in caso l'esperienza di stage lo richieda in sovrannumero (ovvero questi cfu aggiuntivi non servono al raggiungimento dei 120 cfu necessari per conseguire il titolo). L’azienda e unito devono avere un accordo formale, per fini assicurativi. I moduli da firmare per ottenere questo accordo sono disponibili presso il Job Placement (job.cle@unito.it) Lo stage curriculare deve avere valenza formativa e i contenuti dello stesso devono essere coerenti con i contenuti di EACT. Per questo motivo: 1) Andrà fatto un piano formativo per le 75h di stage con il tutor aziendale 2) Questo piano andrà presentato e fatto approvare (tramite modulo disponibile presso il job placement -job.cle@unito.it) da un docente (o tutor accademico) che insegni una materia coerente con quanto si andrà a svolgere nello stage 3) Senza il punto 2) lo stage non sarà riconosciuto per i 3 cfu.
Argomenti generali per tesi (magistrale) per studenti che si laureanno nel 2024-2025. 1) Energy communities: pricing mechanism with electric (and hydrogen) storage. An application with behavioural economics 2) Just and equal energy transition 3) Transport economics and the role of hydrogen in electricity system optimisation models 4) Rare materials in the energy transition
