Find International Studies Internships
International studies majors have the option of completing an internship in the US or overseas. The university’s proximity to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City provides many opportunities for internships with the US government, multinational businesses, and international agencies. Students earn 3 to 6 credits of college credit while gaining real-world experience. Although students pursuing the minor and letters of completion are not required to study abroad or pursue internships, they are encouraged to do so because employers value college graduates with international learning experiences.
