Working & interning abroad

Global Initiatives works with the Career Center to provide students with information and opportunities on how to gain international job experience.

Intern abroad with IE3 global internships

IE3 global internships are geared toward students who would like to integrate academic credit with on-the-job experience. Internships are available in a variety of non-governmental organizations, educational institutions, and private organizations around the world. Host organizations provide supervision and logistical support for students in the host country. Many internships require foreign language proficiency, though numerous English language internships are available.
