本研究分析了化学工程专业学生对他们的第一次专业经验之前和之后做一个课程实习的期望。这项探索性的研究适用于从研究所上级德Engenharia做波尔图（ISEP）第一周期毕业的最后一年的学生，它是基于在两个不同的时刻交给学生的两个类似的问卷调查的结果：开始和完成实习后。不同的项目由学生在从1（非常差）到5（非常好）的量表中进行分类。该研究考虑了一组44名学生，并参考了一个学年（2015/16）。结果表明，学生在开始实习前的期望值总体上非常高（所有项目的中位数为4和5）。学生对真实的成就（实习结束后）的结论与最初的预期相当接近，但在22个项目中，有10个项目存在统计学差异。在所有这些情况下，观察到的差异仅反映了分数的轻微下降。这项探索性研究证实，实习使学生更好地了解个人，技术和软技能（自我评价）以及第一次专业经验的成果。实习结束后，学生们对自我评价和真实的成绩仍有非常积极的归类，印证了这段经历对他们形成的重要性。
The present study analyses the expectations of chemical engineering students towards their first professional experience before and after doing a curricular internship. This exploratory research applies to students from the last year of first cycle graduation from Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP) and it is based in the results of two similar questionnaires handed to students in two different moments: before starting and after completing the internship. Different items were classified by the students in a scale from 1 (very poor) to 5 (very good). The study considered a group of 44 students and refers to one academic year (2015/16). The results show that the students' expectations before starting the internship are globally very high (medians 4 and 5, for all items). Students' conclusions about real achievements (after ending the internship) are quite close to initial expectations, but for ten of 22 items, statistical differences were observed. In all these cases, the observed differences reflect only a slight decrease in the scores. This exploratory study confirms that the internship allows the students a better awareness of personal, technical and soft skills (self-evaluation) as well as of that first professional experience outcomes. Self-evaluation and real achievements are still very positively classified by the students after the internship, confirming the importance of this experience in their formation.
