There is more than one way to have an international experience. Working abroad is an option that many US students choose in order to get overseas experience and work experience at the same time. However students may choose from a vast variety of work options, some paid and some voluntary. Options are not just limited to western Europe either.
Opportunities exist worldwide.
There are three basic types of work abroad, and we have listed some resources below under each type in order to help you get started on your search. Remember that if you choose one of these options, you should come by the CIE office so that you can access our work abroad library, and so that we can help you make your arrangements. Internships generally last for three to six months, and are arranged through a university or organisation. Application forms for British work permits are available in the CIE Office. Beaver College summer internships - Beaver College arranges summer internships in England, Scotland, Australia and elsewhere for students interested in gaining experience in theatre, political science, hotel management and a variety of other subjects.
