Spanish term or phrase: Residencia
Found on a Mexican architecture school transcript as a course name. I don't think it's "Residence," as in houses, but perhaps an internship, apprenticeship, or residency, because it's the last class taken for the degree, and bears more credit than any other. Thanks for any help you can offer!

Seems that "internship" or "apprenticeship" fit better
