On the London Internship Summer Program, you’ll engage with London as both a professional and a student. On this seven week program, you'll intern three days per week for six weeks and be in class two days per week for six weeks engaging in coursework designed to complement your work experience and to reinforce your professional and academic interests. There are placements available in a wide range of industries. This is a unique and affordable study abroad opportunity—if you want to network this summer, this may be a great program option.
Placement options include: Advertising; arts; business operations; film & television; accounting and entrepreneurship; hospitality; journalism; law; politics; marketing; non-governmental organizations; psychology; public relations; and theater. The Internship Placement Guide outlines more placement details. Placements are arranged based on your interests, experience and goals.
As part of your Cornerstone Course, Work in Thought and Action, you’ll form a set of goals to work toward while in your placement. At the conclusion of the semester, you are to give a Final Reflection and Presentation, which allows you to make discoveries about yourself through your placement experience. You will also complete a Digital Resume Portfolio, which will give you exposure to the online world of job searching through creation of an online resume, social media profile and cover letter for a job application.
In addition to your placement and the Cornerstone Course, you will enroll in one additional elective.
