| Having trouble deciding between an internship abroad or a semester abroad? Or, are you looking for a study abroad experience with an extra boost of professional development? Consider participating in a Study Internship Combination Program.
Study Internship Combination Programs allow you take a part-time load of classes (one to three, depending on the university) at select universities while undertaking a professional internship in your field at a local company. For many students this is an ideal arrangement, offering immersion into both collegiate and work environments. You will receive credit from the host university, for both the classes and the internship, on an official university transcript and be considered a full-time student. Placements are limited and not guaranteed, and in most cases, internships cannot be finalized before you arrive at the university overseas. If you are considering the Semester Internship Combination Program, a flexible attitude is key. Universities With Study Internship Combination Programs
