Currently universities are looking for professional skills demanded by relevant environments, whether generic or specific ones. The goal of this paper is establishing generic skills regular to any discipline and internship application of college graduates at the Faculty of Economic Sciences of Universidad Militar Nueva Granada (UMNG). Then a literature review was performed and a survey conducted with undergraduates who performed internship as an option to graduate between 2009 and 2010. Then, the most applied generic skills were interpersonal relationships, ethic and quality. Likewise, the less applied skills related to an appropriate performance in the international environment. The main conclusion is internship is a scenario that universities may use to assess the relevance of training and the skill level of graduates.
