摘要：The capacity to establish sustainable and mutual advantage relationships between university and enterprise is a challenge raised by a more knowledge-based society. This article identifies three levels of analysis of the university-enterprise relationship: supra-institutional level; strategic level; and operational level. For one of these levels the article takes into account how an undergraduate degree in management can boost different sorts of relationships between university and enterprise based on teaching/learning. For one of those actions – internships – the article analyses the case of Licenciatura em Gestão, an undergraduate degree at the University of Minho (Portugal), and shows how its internships was, in a first moment, a barrier to the relationship, and, in a second moment, after a new plan of studies, how it is managed to foster university-enterprise relationships. In the studied case, the relationship is supported by a network of knowledge creation and sharing based on interdependence and reciprocity in costs and benefits. In this knowledge network, the internship is a tool that promotes the relationship and the student is the network's central actor. This network has several individual benefits for the people involved in the network as well as organizational benefits both for the university and enterprise.
